Introduction
Years ago I first learned about a frittata from James Beard's "Beard on Food" using leftover potatoes.When I started to make it, I did a lot of variations. One thing I kept is putting it under the broiler at the end. Crunch City!
Feel free to substitute egg beaters or egg whites, margarine, and/or low fat cheeses. Omit onions if you don't like them. Years ago I first learned about a frittata from James Beard's "Beard on Food" using leftover potatoes.
