Are you looking for a delicious and nutritious meal that's both gluten-free and dairy-free? Look no further than our Easy Gluten-Free Dairy-Free Frittata. Packed with colorful veggies and simple ingredients, this recipe is a great way to enjoy a healthy, flavorful dish that's easy to make.
This is not a traditional frittata because we don't mix the eggs in the saucepan straight away and then place the saucepan in the oven.
I find the way we do it to be easier, to mix the ingredients in a bowl and place in a round baking dish for baking.
