We toasted the walnuts first. We also used Egg Beaters instead of eggs and fat-free mozzerella - this cut out about 150 calories per serving. It was delicious! Next time, I think we'll add another garlic clove.

I made this for my DH for breakfast this morning and he enjoyed it! I scaled the recipe down to 2 eggs and used Monterey Jack cheese instead of mozzarella. Thanks for posting! Made for ZWT4.

for this recipe i replaced the bleu cheese with feta & the walnuts with pine nuts since thats what i had on hand. i've never had a frittata before but i have to say that i prefer the texture of a regular omelette.
