Fabulous Frittata

Submitted by Moody

"I love frittata. Its the epitomy of a quick, healthy meal. These can be eaten cold, hot, with salad, or not. You can really fool around with the ingredients and make it different every time."

6. Stir the egg, cheese& herb mixture one last time, and pour over the filling.
7. Stir lightly for about 30 seconds.

I was looking for a simple, easily adaptable frittata recipe and this filled the bill very nicely. It's easy to tailor to personal tastes with various veggies and cheeses, and makes a quick but special Sunday breakfast. Thank you for posting, Moody!

Lovely easy recipe. I used colored peppers, a Jalapeno pepper, onions and mushrooms. No cheese. It made atasty, not too heavy dinner
