Vegetable Frittata (Italian style omelet) image

This recipe makes the weekend family breakfasts extra special and is a great way to get the kids to eat their vegetables! I found this one in the American Baby Magazine that features easy yet satisfying meals for busy Moms and Dads! I've tried this with many variations of vegetables and I have yet to be disapointed.
