Muffin Size Frittata's



I needed something portable for Atzin's lunch and something that my dad could have for breakfast, lunch, or dinner depending on when he got hungry.  These were perfect - and nice small portions as well - so they can be a healthy snack in the middle of day, or eat 2-3 and have a meal.  The other good thing about these is that my dad can just pick them up with his hands and doesn't have to use a fork.  Because of the arthritis, he has a hard time using a fork.  He doesn't have to worry about that with this meal.  This was really very easy and they were delicious.  These are also dairy free for those that have a dairy allergy or sensitivity.
