ASPARAGUS FRITTATA WITH WILD SMOKED SALMON

ASPARAGUS

I’m new to the frittata scene this Oh, so delicious, warm and cheesy bake was devoured by the fam over the weekend ok, so I participated in the devouring.   My family loves eggs; we eat them for breakfast at least twice a week, but this dish up’d my egg game big time #browniepointsformom. So, I did what any Mom would do; I added it to our weekender rotation +  we love wild smoked salmon especially when it’s fried it sends your palate on cloud nine with its salty sweetness and savory flavor- the use of frying entirely justified.

WILD SMOKED SALMON

Can I just say, thank goodness for cheese my go-to decoy for hiding veggies? This Frittata has the right amount of cheese, potatoes, and let’s not forget the salty sweetness of salmon, the nutty flavor of asparagus to deliver an easy, healthy, downright GOOD meal.
