Introduction

I MODIFIED THE SOUTHBEACH DIET SMOKED SALMON FRITTATA TO FIT THE INGREDIENTS I HAD ON HAND (FROZEN ASPARAGUS SPEARS, HEAVY WHIPPING CREAM, AND SUNDRIED TOMATO PESTO INSTEAD OF 1/4 CUP OF SUNDRIED DRY PACKED TOMATOES).
YOU CAN SUBSTITUTE BROCCOLI FLOURETS FOR THE ASPARAGUS AND HAM FOR THE SALMON.
THIS IS EASIER THAN IT SOUNDS AND IS RICH AND TASTEY FOR BRUNCH!
