Bite Size Bounty

Take your favorite frittata recipe and portion it into mini muffin pans to make a savory finger food.  Tonight, I baked the egg portion of the frittata for 10 minutes, placed a dollop of ricotta cheese in the center, sprinkled with diced seasoned tomatoes and baked another 8 minutes. We enjoyed these as the dinner entree, with fresh vegetable crudites and fresh pineapple on the side.
