Individual Italian Frittatas Recipe

By CarolineNGa

The Italian word "frittata" refers to frying the egg-based dish in a skillet. This Italian spin with added salami, roasted sweet peppers and mozzarella is baked in a ramekin but the ending is the same - delicious day or night. —Mrs. Nancy Elliott, Houston, Texas
