• You'll need an all-metal pan to take this dish from the stove to the oven in the true frittata style. (Alternatively, the portions could be baked in individual ramekins, just mix all the the ingredients into the eggs, then pour into the ramekins and bake). Made with egg substitute, this is a more healthful and low fat brunch item, great accompanied by fresh fruit and mimosas made with prosecco.
