Mini Tofu Frittatas with Sweet Potato and Black Beans

These Mini Tofu Frittatas with Sweet Potato and Black Beans are perfect for a brunch or on the go breakfast.

One of my favorite meals to have for brunch is tofu frittata. I know there are some people who like something sweet and sugary for brunch, like pancakes or French toast.

Not me, I prefer a savory dish with some protein. If I have something sweet it is always a fruit smoothie, which usually includes some protein powder.

Since I like tofu frittatas so much, I thought I would make some Mini Tofu Frittatas with Sweet Potato and Black Beans. These can be made as an appetizer for brunch, included in a child’s lunch, or eaten on the go.

Their bite sized portions are perfect for all of the above. I added a tomato and onion garnish to add some freshness, and because I think they look better when serving.

I mixed in chipotle in adobo for some heat. To me, it is pretty mild, but if you don’t like spicy, I would include less.

Of course, taste the tofu batter after one chipotle, or even a half of one. If you are making these for a child’s lunch, you may want to omit them altogether.

If you want to sneak in more vegetables than just a sweet potato, try my Tofu Frittata with broccoli, carrots, and red pepper. It has a kick to it as well, with serrano pepper, but again, you could omit it.

This is the brand of chipotle in adobo I buy. It doesn’t have wheat like some other brands.
