Italian Frittata
Frittatas are the Italian form of an omelet. They are usually full of
vegetables and cheese and/or meats. Besides being delicious, they
are a great way to use leftovers!
Let's "talk" about garlic for a minute. First, I love it! Second, not
too much to over power everything else. Third... the easiest way to
peel fresh garlic is to crush a clove with the flat side of your
favorite large (wide) knife or use a garlic press.
Once crushed by a knife, the peel is easily removed. And ...
since it is flattened, you can easily dice or mince the garlic. ☺
