BLACK BEAN & WHITE CHEDDAR FRITTATA

Black Bean & White Cheddar Frittata image

This is one of my favorite comfort foods for breakfast or even a quick dinner. I like to make it with lime salsa. But if you're looking for something with more kick, use hot salsa or add some chipotle pepper. -Aysha Schurman, Ammon, Idaho
