Light yet filling, these frittatas make an excellent breakfast or brunch, and they’re great for dinner, too. They’re already a breeze to make, but to make life even easier, you can use thawed frozen hash browns in place of the shredded potatoes (just be sure to check the ingredients list for FODMAPs). Serve them at breakfast with Mom’s Best Biscuits on page 76, or try them as an evening meal with a tossed salad.
