Bacon, Silverbeet and Potato Tortilla
Just simply the most perfect combination don’t you think? This recipe is a family favourite and a winner!
A traditional family recipe! This tortilla….also known as a frittata, is a solid and balanced meal in itself. The combination of crisp bacon and potatoes is just incredible.
So easy and fast to prepare, and great to make bigger batches to freeze and save for those first thing in the morning ‘hangry’ emergencies.
Tortilla’s get me out of every bad situation in life. And they’re so filling and HEALTHY!
I love this frittata, and everything about it.
Easily serves 2, or save half and freeze for later!

Can I use fresh egg whites or even just more eggs in this recipe? I’ve never used liquid egg white and even after looking it up online I don’t understand the purpose of it in this recipe? Can you please explain?
