Three things: chorizo + kale + gruyere. THREE AMAZING THINGS! Oh my goodness. These three in combination are like dynamite in the mouth for me! Boom pow pow PIZAAAA! That's pih-zaa, not pizza. Clearly. We're making dynamite noises!<\/p>\n

I've been majorly slacking on breakfast lately, mostly because I haven't been working out (oops), which means my appetite is majorly decreased, which means nothing sounds that great\/necessary in the morning. BUT YOU KNOW I LOVE MY BREAKFAST! So I decided to get a little bit creative and entice myself into a delicious, spicy, veggie-ful, protein-ful, frittata! Winning all around.<\/p>\n

\"Single<\/p>\n

So, I walked over to Whole Foods at the crack of dawn to get a little thing of chorizo. By \"the crack of dawn\" I mean 8:30, which is considerably early for me to put on pants and be out seen in public. Fo reals. So, I headed to WF only to discover that I WAS TOO EARLY FOR THE MEAT AND CHEESE COUNTERS!! What, people don't come buy raw meat early in the morning? I can't be the only one. Luckily, they were super friendly and willing to go into the back room and get whatever I wanted.<\/p>\n

Learning to cook for one has also meant learning to SHOP for one: I no longer buy massive quantities of everything (seeya later, Costco membership!). So, I got ONE little link of chorizo. And then used half of it for this, and half of it for another meal. For that reason, I'm all about going to the meat counter (and paying WF prices) for a small quantity of the good stuff. CHORIZO FO LYFE! Omg too much.<\/p>\n

This recipe is super simple: brown the meat, add the kale, whip up some eggs, add some grated cheese, pour it all in a mini-dish, and bake! Plus more cheese on top. Duh. I would have thrown in onions, but I used up my onion making a massive bowl of guacamole the day before. Oopsies. That is where my Costco membership WOULD come in handy: I used to always have BAGS of onions on hand. BAGS. I need to learn better onion management skills, clearly. Can I put that on my resume?<\/p>\n

While I was at WF (this is starting to sounds like a sponsored post, I promise it is not. I just happen to live 1 block from whole foods), I picked up a mini-baguette that rocked my world. It was perfect! Really moist and soft and flavorful and uh-mazing. So, go get one of those (and finish it later with some goat cheese brie - my new obsession!).<\/p>\n

Enjoy! xo<\/p>\nPrint<\/a><\/span>
