I don't eat seafood anymore, but this was one of my favourite breakfast recipes when I did. I adapted this from one of my parents' South Beach Diet books.

LIGHT SPINACH FRITTATA WITH SALSA
Made this for breakfast today and it was SO filling and wonderful. The eggs are very creamy and flavorful when cooked in this way. This is a phase one South Beach Diet recipe, but you would never guess it! You can also make your own salsa.
