Nice and easy dish for brunch or even lunch. I love making frittatas because I don't have to worry about that perfect flip with an omlette. I came up with this by taking your basic ingredients and adding that Mexican style flair that we love. **I've used 8 eggs before when that's all I had and it worked.

This is one of my favorite comfort foods for breakfast or even a quick dinner. I like to make it with lime salsa. But if you're looking for something with more kick, use hot salsa or add some chipotle pepper. -Aysha Schurman, Ammon, Idaho

Tips:

Use fresh and high-quality ingredients. Fresh vegetables and herbs will give your frittata the best flavor. Look for eggs that are fresh and free-range, and use a good quality olive oil.
Don't overcook the eggs. The eggs should be cooked until they are just set, but not dry. Overcooked eggs will be tough and rubbery.
Use a variety of vegetables. This will give your frittata a more complex flavor and texture. Some good choices include bell peppers, onions, zucchini, mushrooms, and spinach.
Season the frittata well. Salt and pepper are essential, but you can also add other spices and herbs, such as garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, or cumin.
Serve the frittata warm or at room temperature. Frittata can be served for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It's also a great option for a picnic or potluck.
