I have partnered with Fresh From Florida on the reasons why I follow the fresh produce movement (and you should, too). It’s incredibly easy to find fresh produce at your local grocer that is Fresh From Florida, and Florida farmers allow us to eat fresh all year-round. Which, in my case, is a blessing because I really enjoy making home cooked meals with fresh produce. Because honestly, not only is it a healthy and affordable option, but fresh produce truly makes the meal. The flavors are richer, and the quality is wholesome.

I’m a huge fan of versatile recipes. What do I mean? Let’s just say sometimes I like breakfast for lunch or dinner, lunch for dinner, dinner for breakfast – you get my gist! So I am really into creating meals that work for any time of day. And in the Link household, we really, really like Mexican and Tex-Mex cuisine. But while my husband could eat the same tacos three days in a row – I’m more of a variety kind of gal.

So with this month’s in-season produce, I purchased bell peppers, sweet corn, blueberries and watermelon from my nearest grocer, Publix, to incorporate in a versatile Tex-Mex recipe called a chicken fajita frittata. OK – minus the watermelon and blueberries – I may have snacked on those during the baking process. But they were in-season, and I couldn’t pass them up! What is a frittata you ask? Actually, it’s an Italian dish of fried eggs – resembling a Spanish omelet – that is cooked in a cast iron pan or skillet. Commonly loaded with veggies and meats, I decided to go with a theme on this one. Again, we’re on a Mexican kick lately, so I chose to incorporate chicken fajitas. Plus, I really enjoy cooking with bell peppers the most. They add such a natural boost of flavor to any dish.

Not only is this recipe incredibly easy to make (especially if you have leftover chicken you’re scratching your head over), but it is low in carbs and high in protein, and makes for amazing leftovers! What’s that sound? That’s the sound of bliss from not having to do any dishes!
