Christmas Morning Veggie Frittata

This green veggie frittata is a gorgeous display of food and can be eaten for any meal!  Yes, frittatas are mainly consumed for a breakfast or brunch, but my family had this for dinner and devoured it.  If you can have it for dinner you can surely eat it for lunch.  This frittata is loaded with veggies and some parmesan cheese and can be on your table in 25 minutes.  The next time you decide to have breakfast for dinner just refer to it as, "B for D!"  That originated from one of my girlfriends and it's just so catchy it stuck 😉
