Spinach and Artichoke Frittata

There are few breakfast options in life I love more than a frittata. It’s a quiche without all the work of a crust in my eyes, but they have fast become a luxury with the price of eggs in early 2025. This spinach and artichoke frittata is there to use up any expensive eggs that you haven’t got through after impulse buying a bunch several weeks ago when you found them for less than eight dollars a dozen.

The flavors of appetizer favorite, spinach and artichoke dip, combine with the savory egg to create a delicious and protein packed way to start your day. This frittata is also leftovers friendly! Enjoy for 2-3 days afterward if you’re using it for meal prep, and freeze any that you won’t get through in that timeframe for a tasty emergency breakfast.

You could also cut rounds out of this frittata to add to a breakfast sandwich rather than eating a triangle out of it for each meal. I recommend a toasted english muffin, some additional butter, and a few slices of bacon.

Cheesy Bacon Egg Bites

Prior to this egg shortage in the States, I used to be one of those people that occasionally had eggs go bad in the refrigerator. I’d forget to use them, or simply not have anything I wanted to make. Now that the cheapest eggs in a NE Wisconsin grocery store are running over six bucks a dozen, I cannot let myself get that lazy anymore. As a result, I wound up with some delicious Cheesy Bacon Egg Cups to freeze for meal prep.

Bacon + Cheese is always a good time, and this quick grab’n’go breakfast is no exception. Add the shredded cheese of your choice, and if you’re looking for a little more, some diced cooked onions and bell peppers help add some bulk. These freeze well and keep for about 1 month in the freezer when individually wrapped in plastic wrap.

@eatingnormal With the price of eggs these days, we simply can't afford to waste 'em if we've got 'em. These Cheesy Bacon Egg Bites are perfect for killing any eggs you have managed to get your hands on before they go bad, and they freeze well for workday breakfasts! There will be no what I eat in a day video today since yesterday was honestly some of the most boring eating I did, even when sick.

Biscuits and Gravy

Biscuits and Gravy is a staple of any midwestern breakfast menu, and it is typically one of my go to orders when I’m eating out. Lately, however, finances are tight. Finding ways to save a few dollars here and there usually starts with cutting out the extravagance of eating out. That means cooking the things I liked to eat most at restaurants at home. I started with this small batch biscuits and gravy, which fed me for about four meals.

Many other sausage gravy recipes out in the world are engineered to feed a family for a few mornings, not just one person. The measurements below can be doubled or tripled to suit your needs for company or family.

@eatingnormal A hearty breakfast for a small crowd is easy with this white sausage gravy recipe. Enjoy this southern and midwestern staple in small batches alone or double or triple it to feed a crowd at less than a dollar a serving! #biscuitsandgravy #breakfast #recipes #food #cooking ♬ original sound - Eating Normal
