Delicious individual frittatas, I add a few thin sliced mushrooms and garlic to the Zucchini when sauting them. We liked the idea of the individual frittatas. Thank you for the recipe,Chia.

These were very nice for a light dinner. I did not have any chives and instead used Italian seasoning. I used 4 whole eggs and 12 egg whites (to reduce the calories and cholesterol). I obviously have very small muffin tins, though! I put these into a regular 12 muffin tin plus used 2 ramekins! We particularly liked the way they looked in the ramekins, though you would need a lot of them to do that.
