Eggs are such a versatile food that it never ceases to amaze me and more amazing is that just salt and pepper are enough to enjoy them with. Do you also, share my sentiments? Eggs are wholesome, can be had as any meal (breakfast, lunch or dinner) and are made in so many different ways across the globe.
This recipe is an egg-cellent breakfast/brunch idea. The egg preparation here, called frittata, is an Italian dish – which is very similar to an omelette. When you go through the recipe, you will observe that, it’s only the style of cooking that is different. This is an easy, quick, filling and a yummy egg meal. While I have added only vegetables here, you could also add meat and/or cheese along with herbs and seasonings of your choice. Making a frittata will ignite your cooking creativity for sure!
