Recipe Introduction:
I have a big love for Fritatta's, easily my favorite breakfast food to cook, and the great part is that it is one of the easiest. A Fritatta is almost like a Quice, except it doesn't have the pie crust. One of my favorite things to do when making a Fritatta is to look in my fridge and combine whatever vegetables, herbs and cheeses I have to make a wonderful combination of fresh flavors in my Fritatta. You will find that this is one of the easiest dishes to make after doing it a few times and will grow to love it.
Note: Recipe is formatted for four serving
