 What is a better way to start the morning then with a fresh rosemary & mushroom frittata?! The earthy flavours from both the rosemary & mushroom blend compliment the eggs & smoky gruyere cheese perfectly. Whenever I am hosting a breakfast or brunch frittata is always on my menu. For this particular recipe I chose to use a combination of oyster, shiitake & mini white mushrooms, but you can use whatever blend of mushrooms you like best! Frittatas are a dish I love experimenting with in the kitchen & testing out different flavour combinations. It is safe to say this one is at the top of my list!
