Veggie Frittata is a wonderful dish that’s so quick and easy to prepare any time of the day for any meal. I used to call it Pizza Eggs or Pancake Eggs. It’s great to serve for brunch, for a quick breakfast or even dinner! Frittata’s are wonderful way to add heaps of veggies into a meal.
Another wonderful egg dish that is a family favorite and can be prepared the night before and heated in the morning is our strata. It’s great for special occasions or holidays like Easter. Strata is a great dish for a crowd.
