This past week was spent up in the mountains of North Carolina at my in laws cabin; it’s a charming, rustic cabin built by my husbands grandfather. We ate out most of the trip, if you’ve ever been to Maggie Valley; then you know there are some really amazing places to eat! Anyway I over ate on many a delicious pastry and breakfast – a family tradition is breakfast at Joey’s Pancake House. The last day of trip we didn’t have time to dine out for breakfast so I made this frittata the night before so we could just reheat and eat before the long 12 hour trip back home. A quick frittata of spinach and tomato with swiss cheese, makes this a delicious breakfast, lunch or dinner. Enjoy and happy baking!
