Pumpkin frittata is a quick, light lunch or dinner, that is healthy (reasonably) and cheap. It’s great for lunchboxes because you can eat it hot or cold, with or without salad. If you have other vegetables, you could try changing the pumpkin to a mixture of other vegetables to create new flavours.
If you like egg based dishes, you could try these instead: Bacon and Spinach Pie, Mini Quiche or quick and easy crustless quiche lorraine.
