I'm allergic to eggs, so I made this frittata with tofu instead. It turned out really well! The tofu gave the frittata a nice, firm texture.

This frittata is a great way to use up leftover vegetables. I added some chopped zucchini and mushrooms to mine, and it turned out great.

I'm not a fan of spinach, but I still enjoyed this frittata. The blue cheese flavor was really strong, which I liked.

I had some trouble getting the frittata to cook evenly. The bottom was overcooked while the top was still runny.

This frittata was a bit too salty for my taste, but overall it was still a good recipe.

I'm not a huge fan of blue cheese, but I decided to give this recipe a try anyway. I'm glad I did! The blue cheese flavor was not overpowering, and it paired well with the spinach and eggs.
