Winter Harvest Protein Frittata: Start Your Day Strong with Regeneratively Raised Ingredients
A nourishing breakfast sets the tone for everything that follows. Start with a protein-rich, nutrient-dense meal, and you’ll power through the day feeling energized, focused, and satisfied. Reach for something sugary or processed, and you’re in for a rollercoaster of energy crashes and cravings.
That’s why we love this Winter Harvest Protein Frittata — a simple, delicious way to fuel your body while supporting regenerative farming practices.
Why a Protein-Packed Breakfast Matters
Starting your morning with 25–30 grams of high-quality protein helps:
-
Regulate blood sugar for steady energy
-
Preserve lean muscle mass
-
Boost brain function and cognitive clarity
-
Support a healthy metabolism naturally
This frittata delivers all of that, using the highest-quality pasture-raised pork and eggs from Late Bloomer Ranch.
Better Ingredients, Better Nutrition
Pasture-Raised Eggs:
Our eggs come from hens raised on rotational pasture, where they forage naturally. Compared to conventional eggs, regeneratively farmed eggs offer:
-
Higher Omega-3 fatty acids
-
More Vitamin D
-
Greater levels of choline for brain and liver health
-
Antioxidant-rich yolks (lutein and zeaxanthin)
Regeneratively Raised Pork:
Our ham steak comes from pigs raised on pasture — not confined feedlots. Pasture-raised pork offers:
-
More healthy fats and Omega-3s
-
Higher levels of B vitamins, zinc, and selenium
-
Clean, flavorful meat without the toxins found in factory-farmed alternatives
Choosing regeneratively farmed meats nourishes your body and supports farming that heals the land.
