This Sausage, Bacon & Mushroom Frittata is just 1 Smart Point per portion on the Weight Watchers Blue, Purple and old Freestyle plan.
It's 4 SmartPoints per portion on the Green plan.
It's easy to make and can be served with a simple side salad for a filling and tasty lunch.
Since eggs are zero heroes on the Weight Watchers Blue and Purple plans, I have become a great fan of Frittatas!
They are filling, they are tasty and what is more they are very easy to make.
One portion of this Sausage, Bacon & Mushroom Frittata (a quarter of the whole thing) is just 1 Smart Point.
It is really filling, but if you were feeling particularly hungry you could have half the Frittata for just 2 Smart Points! That is crazy!
When I make this Frittata, I often eat the remainder for breakfast over the next couple of mornings.
It kind of reminds me of a Full English Breakfast!
It keeps well in the fridge and can either be eaten cold or can be warmed through before eating.

One of the secrets of making a good frittata is to use a good quality non stick frying pan/ skillet.
The pan needs to be oven proof so that you can place it in the oven to cook the top of the Frittata.
For this recipe I used a 20cm Eaziglide pan which is very hard wearing, bona fide non stick and not too heavy.
