One of the many things I love about blogging is the fact that I can reach you guys from just about anywhere (as long as I’ve got a WiFi connection!) ย And today that somewhere is Disneyland! ย I’m here with my mom and younger brother, since it’s become sort of a tradition to take a trip “just the three of us” before back to school/work time.
ย 
Now although it’s the land of churros, ice cream treats, and corn dogs… I’m still managing to eat pretty clean. ย There are actually a ton of healthy options, especially at the sit-down restaurants. ย But with the number of “steps” we get in trekking it back & forth between Disneyland and California Adventure… I wouldn’t feel too bad if a corn dog or Dole whip snuck onto the menu!

ย 
One thing I actually look forward to after a vacation, besides reuniting with Dathan & the pets, is definitely getting back to a clean eating routine. ย Although it can get monotonous at times, I do love some structure in my life – especially when it comes to breakfast foods as my first meal of the day.
ย 
I’ve been making a version of this Pizza Frittata for some time now, because you all know: ย I like pizza. ย And while I have Paleo-fied tons of pizza inspired recipes over the years, I hadn’t tackled a breakfast dish until recently. ย There’s just something about that “combination” flavor profile: ย sautรฉed veggies, savory meats, plenty of garlic, and you guessed it – pizza sauce! ย It “makes it” for an actual pizza, and is the same here for this frittata. ย It just finishes off the breakfast bake perfectly.
ย 
I hope you enjoy getting ALL the pizza feels – for breakfast! – with this Paleo friendly, *Whole30 compliant*, pizza frittata. ย Enjoy!
