Mediterranean Frittata

If there’s one thing I’ve learned from juggling work, motherhood, and staying (somewhat) sane, it’s that food needs to be easy, nourishing, and delicious. That’s exactly what this Mediterranean Frittata delivers. It’s quick to prep, full of flavour, and packed with ingredients that’ll leave you feeling good from the inside out.

It’s loaded with veggies, herbs, and that salty, satisfying hit of feta cheese. The best part? It’s high in protein, low in carbs, and completely customisable. Whether you’re eating solo, feeding a family, or meal-prepping for the week ahead, this frittata has your back.

As a mum who’s always on the go (and let’s be honest, trying to make 4,000 decisions a day), I’m a big fan of meals that take the pressure off. This one can be prepped in under 10 minutes and popped straight into the oven - no mess, no drama. It’s also a great way to use up any stray veggies in the fridge before they wilt into sadness.

If your goal is sustained energy, stable blood sugar, and feeling full without the 3pm crash, this way of eating is gold. Here’s why:

High Protein = Satiety + Strength

• Protein helps build and repair muscle, which is crucial for metabolism, strength, and recovery (especially if you’re active or chasing kids around).

• It also increases satiety, meaning it keeps you full for longer, reducing those cravings and constant snack urges.

• Examples: Eggs, chicken breast, turkey mince, Greek yoghurt, tofu, lean beef, cottage cheese.

Healthy Fats = Brain Fuel + Hormone Support

• Good fats help with hormonal balance, brain function, and nutrient absorption (especially for fat-soluble vitamins like A, D, E, and K).

• They also add amazing texture and flavour to meals, making them more satisfying without relying on carbs.

• Examples: Avocado, olive oil, nuts, seeds, tahini, oily fish, coconut oil.

Low Carbs = Stable Energy + Blood Sugar Balance

• Lowering your carb intake (especially refined ones like white bread, pasta, and sugar) can help stabilise blood sugar, reducing energy spikes and crashes.

• Focusing on non-starchy veggies and whole foods keeps your fibre intake high without the sugar overload.

• Examples: Zucchini, spinach, capsicum, broccoli, mushrooms, cauliflower, leafy greens.

Bonus Benefits:

• Supports fat loss while preserving lean muscle.

• It can improve mental clarity and reduce brain fog.

• Helps reduce inflammation in the body when paired with whole, clean ingredients.

• Often leads to better digestion and fewer bloating issues.
