Zucchini~Carrot~Sausage Frittata

Frittata is one of my favorite quick dishes. You can incorporate pretty much any type of vegetable that is in season and eat this great dish for breakfast or as a main meal accompanied by a salad. You will find a different version of this dish on my blog for which I used kale and asparagus. This time I decided to add some chicken sausage as well. IMG_0958
