As the weather warms up here in New England, it's the perfect time to give your wardrobe a little spring refresh. After months of layering up, our favorite basics—like tee shirts and tank tops —can start to show signs of wear. Whether it's stretched-out necklines, faded colors, or mystery stains that just won't budget, spring is the ideal season to replace those go-to pieces. As moms, we're so focused on taking care of everyone else that it's easy to overlook our own needs. But something as simple as replacing a few well-loved pieces can be a form of self-care —reminding us that we deserve to feel comfortable, confident, and put-together, too.

Steak and Potato Frittata

Steak and Potato Frittata | Taste As You Go

For someone who loves eggs, I'm embarrassed to admit that it wasn't until very recently that I made my first frittata at home.

One of the brilliant things about a frittata is its versatility. Although it's made with eggs, a frittata is appropriate for any meal. Obviously, it makes a fantastic option for breakfast or brunch, but, if you serve the frittata with some fresh fruit or a side salad, then it can also make a simple lunch or dinner. You can even make a frittata ahead of time and then slice and serve it whenever you want.

As for what you put into a frittata, the sky's the limit! You can alter your ingredients to suit your personal tastes, just as you would with an omelet. (Though, you won't need to worry about folding the eggs properly with a frittata.) And, if you have any leftover meat or vegetables in your refrigerator, then a frittata is the perfect way to repurpose those leftovers into something new.

That's exactly what I did with the grilled flank steak and roasted potatoes that I put into this frittata... And it was a hit!

What are your favorite frittata (or omelet) ingredients?
