Black Bean and Avocado Frittata

Submitted by carolinajen4

"Nice and easy dish for brunch or even lunch. I love making frittatas because I don't have to worry about that perfect flip with an omlette. I came up with this by taking your basic ingredients and adding that Mexican style flair that we love. **I've used 8 eggs before when that's all I had and it worked."
