Breakfast Meal Idea | Turkey Bacon Frittata Recipe
I live for breakfast! I’m always ravenous when I wake up in the morning and need energy to keep me going throughout the day. My favourite breakfast foods are none other than the classic bacon and eggs. I’ll take my eggs- scrambled or fried and I love my bacon crisp.
A few months ago, I tried Butterball Original Bacon Style Turkey and it was a hit! I loved that it has 50% less fat than regular bacon and is made with 100% turkey. You cook just like you would regular bacon, but it will not shrivel into nothingness like your ordinary bacon. It pretty much stays the same size so you get a good full serving.
Flavour wise, it’s delicious. It tastes like, well, bacon- smoky, crispy and the perfect complement to some scrambled eggs.
I like my low carb meals because it seems to be the best way for me to lose weight and keep it off. One of my favourite low carb recipes is Frittata. I enjoy experimenting with different ingredients to see how it turns out. I decided to make a Turkey Bacon Frittata with Butterball Bacon Style Turkey. I only used half the package and the other half I made my own bacon bits for Caesar Salad. It was scrumptious! I could eat it for breakfast, lunch and supper!

oh that looks super yummy. I’ve never made frittatas before but I want to try. Is the difference between an omelet and a frittata in that you bake the frittata?
Yes and also that the ingredients are throughout the frittata. In an omelet they are usually in the centre.
i love turkey bacon….been eating it for years. love the jenny o brand, low sodium, low fat, low in calories. my dogs love it too.
Great recipe, I love turkey bacon.
I have not tried turkey bacon, but the frttata really looks appetizing! WIll give this a try
I made the turkey bacon frittata yesterday for breakfast and everyone loved it.
That looks really good. Great pictures too!
Good to know there is a delicious healthier bacon. I love bacon and know I need to use a healthier form. Bacon is great all day long by itself or in a recipe. Adding cheese and eggs are just delicious bonuses. Happy Halloween! Enjoy some healthier bacon with your treats! : )
Yummy! All the things I like. Will have to try this recipe.
Thank-you for this recipe! We LOVE Butterball Turkey Bacon – so much better than the real thing ๐
This looks great, I’ll have to give it a try!
This looks really good minus the mushrooms! lol I am always looking for new recipes!!
This sure was a hit with my family!
You make this look not only super yummy but super easy as well. ๐
I make a similar one with regular bacon. I wondered if using turkey bacon would make it dry, so I was glad to see our recipe and that it is not dry with turkey bacon. thanks!
Saved this for future use!! Looks amazing!
Loved the detailed photos. I’m going to try this!
I love breakfast food and this looks good because you can have it for breakfast, lunch or dinner! I have never tried turkey bacon but you make it sound great! This recipe looks yummy and I love your pictures because they make it look easy! Thanks for sharing your recipe and comments!
Looks delicious and easy to make. I’ll have to give this a try.
This will be a great recipe for when my children visit for the holidays… they only eat turkey bacon, due to dietary restrictions, so this will be something they will enjoy. Thanks for the recipe!
yum, my family loves turkey bacon
I am going to have to try this, thinking i might try and add some peppers to it
I think I will make this on Thanksgiving morning…I always make it a point that breakfast that morning be filling and something special, that way no one expects lunch out of me…LOL.. I make something and we eat while watching the parade on tv.. and then I have time to get everything in order that I need for dinner that evening ๐ This dish will work perfectly!
another delicious treat for me, yum ๐
Anything with bacon…………is awesome!
I love turkey bacon… I just wish my husband wsn’t so against it… He’s a meat and potatoes kind of guy, and you aren’t allowed to mess with the “real thing”.
Thanks for the recipe for this Frittata. It looks really good as it has all things that I love to it. I have had the turkey bacon before. If you dont want that just use regualr bacon (tho it will have more fat from it) This is a great recipe for brunches or a busy holiday morning breakfast for the family. I always think Frittatas are similar to quiches .
Just bookmarked this as I am always looking for yummy breakfast recipes!
I love Butterball Bacon Style Turkey, less mess for sure.
I’m trying to get my husband to like eggs more and I think this recipe could go a long way!
Looks yummy, gonna try this weekend!
Looks delicious and easy to make. Thanks for sharing!
I will definitely be trying this ๐ We love to make brunch on the weekends and sometimes breakfast for dinner. When I say bacon, cheese, and mushrooms to my hubby he’s going to start drooling! I might even think about adding some asparagus.
I don’t care for turkey bacon but this looks fantastic =D
This looks really simple and good. I need to give this a try!
This look really good, but I’d probably make it without the mushrooms. Beautiful pictures, btw.
This looks amazing!! I’ve been pondering trying another low carb diet as well, so this fits right in.
