Gluten Free Halloumi & Bacon Frittatas with Spinach & Kale

These little frittata muffins are full of flavour and perfect when you need a good gluten free brunch option! This recipe is special to me because it combines most of my favourite foods: Cypriot halloumi cheese, spinach, kale and smoked bacon with extra smokey flavour! One Sunday morning, I woke up and wanted something a bit different for breakfast and decided to try making my own frittatas.

Frittatas are an Italian dish, the word means fried and it's a favourite way to use up leftovers and it's also a quick and easy way to make a meal. Just about anything can go into a frittata and it can be served for breakfast, brunch, dinner or a late night snack. If you'll be serving your frittata for lunch or dinner, consider tossing in some pasta or rice, too.

Some of the ingredients for these frittatas were provided by Spanish fruit and veg exporters, 3P Fruits for the purpose of developing a recipe showcasing their exceptional produce. Thank you to the team at 3P for sending such a lovely selection across.

1/2 onion, diced
