I love eggs for breakfast; they’re quick, nutritious and filling. Although, one criticism that I often hear about lower-calorie/ figure-freindly egg recipes is that they are just a little blah. Well, blah no more. Dijon mustard is the trick. It brings a richness to baked egg dishes allowing you to load up on veggies and skip (or at least cut down) the cheese and sausage. Kristin incorporates dijon mustard into her delicious spicy broccoli frittata. Yum!
