Directions
Frittata Di Zucchine (Zucchini Frittata), Over 50 years ago, I was taught to make zucchini frittatas by my grandmother This is her recipe, which I still use on a regular basis You can adjust/substitute the herbs to your taste preference to make this recipe your own Served with a tossed green salad on the side, it makes a wonderful light dinner Posted in answer to a request , Followed the recipe closely BUT forgot to add the basil and threw in an extra handful of cheese WINNER! Will make this again and get creative Is the only way to load photos via Facebook? Bummer , I’ve made this recipe many times and eat it for breakfast, lunch, and dinner! I like it best when use both basil and parsley, but it’s always delicious
