Asparagus Frittata

Asparagus Frittata with Salad

Frittatas are easy, healthy & a great way to use up leftovers! This recipe works with just about any vegetable/meat/cheese combination.

How about you guys? Are you rocking breakfast for dinner?  Think about Frittatas. They’re easier than an omelette, faster (and less calorie ridden) than a quiche and made in one pan. Add a little fruit or small salad on the side and you’ve got yourself breakfast, dinner or lunch.

Darn you, Tyler! Darn you and your belly of fresh Atlantic salmon that would be so perfect for Mother’s Day! My solution: a budget-friendly Salmon Hash with Hollandaise.
