Tomato and Leek Frittata (Sbd Phase 1) image

I've finally gotten a chance to make this so I want to revise my description and add some information. Delish! this is a relatively easy recipe that can be eaten for pretty much any meal of the day. It would make a lovely addition to a brunch buffet as well as a nice light supper with a salad. I've made this recipe using half egg beaters and half real eggs, and I've also substituted 1/3 C grated parmesan or locatelli instead of cheddar... either way it turns out terriffic
