This Instant Pot Frittata is delicious, super easy to customize with your favorite veggies, and perfect for families–everyone can make their own mini frittata version! The best part is that it’s a healthier version–a 21 Day Fix frittata. I love making healthy recipes that are also really delicious. The whole family loves these Instant Pot frittata’s because they’re quick, simple, and they can add whatever they like.
How can an Instant Pot help me?
I love the Instant Pot for making awesome dinners but I also use mine for meal prep. The 21 Day Fix program is fantastic and it is a total game changer but you have to put in the work. Part of that work is the meal prep.
I have it down to a science…just about…and the Instant Pot, Crockpot, and pretty much any other programmable kitchen device, makes the job a whole lot easier.
What should I include when meal prepping?
If you want to start meal prepping you can do the fast version…or you can pick a meal plan that is right for you from these lists. I’d also highly recommend building your own meal plan from delicious recipes that are 21 Day Fix compliant.
I have helped others begin their meal prepping journeys and I must say there is something to be said for starting small and working your way up to a full meal plan being prepped for the week.
Start out doing something you know will be useful to you like snacks or breakfasts, then work you way up by adding in another meal each week. I typically make dinner each night and don’t prep those all for the whole week, lunches and snacks?
I have to have those prepped or my week feels chaotic. These healthy frittata cups are perfect for breakfast when I’m prepping.
Ingredients needed to make 21 Day Fix Frittatas:
- turkey bacon
- eggs
- salt
- pepper
- red potato
- bell pepper
- onion
- milk
- cheddar cheese
- ceramic ramekins
Directions for Making Instant Pot Mini Frittatas:
- Place turkey bacon on bottom of ramekins.
- Add diced vegetables to on top of the bacon.
- Mix eggs, milk, salt, and pepper. Pour the egg mixture over the veggies. Then sprinkle shredded cheese on top.
- Cover each ramekin baking dish with aluminum foil, place them on the trivet with 1 cup water on the bottom.
- Cook 10 minutes in Instant Pot or other pressure cooker on pressure cook, high pressure using the manual function.
- Release the pressure using the quick release method. Let cool and enjoy.
Recipe Notes: It’s very easy to store these frittatas in a plastic storage bag in the refrigerator to enjoy later in the week. Just reheat for 60 seconds. They come out like little muffin cups so they are perfect for on the go breakfasts throughout the week.
Can I make this recipe as just a vegetable frittata?
I believe that you would have success cutting the meat out of this recipe. You could probably also omit the cheese. Please be advised I haven’t tried that myself so I’m not sure how it will change the consistency.
You would also need to take a few moments and recalculate the Weight Watchers Freestyle Points or the 21 Day Fix Container Counts. If neither of those applies to you I guess you could just go for it and see how they come out!

Hi Becca,
I’m new to your blog and loving your recipes! What would be the recommended cooking time and setting on a regular crockpot for the mini frittata recipe? I apologize upfront if that was mentioned on the recipe as I may have overlooked it.
Looking forward to trying your recipes. :)
Becca says
Hi Cheryl! Thank you so much! I haven’t made these in the crock pot yet, but if I did I’d put them on low for 4-6 hours. Maybe do it the first time when you’re home to monitor them while they’re cooking–just look for the eggs to be done.
Sue Russell-Perna says
Becca you are absolutely amazing love your receipes
Becca says
Awh, Sue. Thanks for making my day!! ☺️
Kristy says
Hi!! If you stack your ramekins so that you can do 6 at one time, what would your time setting be? Or would you advise against that?
Becca says
Hi Kristy, I haven’t done that so I can’t advise. Sorry :-/ If you do try it I’d love to know how it worked!
Kylie says
I made these yesterday, but shift shop approved and they were so good! I omitted the potato and milk and used water. I just have to say, I have no clue how you got it all into three ramekins. Mine spilled over and I still had a little bit of egg left over. I can’t wait to make them again!!
Chelsea says
Do I cook the turkey bacon first or will the instant pot do it for me?
Becca says
Hi Chelsea, I didn’t cook mine before! I let the IP do it for me :)
Melissa Tippets says
What size are the containers you use? Could you use mason jars instead?
Becca says
4 ounces! People have used mason jars with success :)
Lisa says
I’m so sad. :( I didn’t watch your video and only printed the recipe. Your step by step instructions didn’t mention when to add the potatoes. 😢😩 They we’re still amazing though!!!!!!
