This dish is so easy to put together, and topped with a smokey eggplant salsa its just out of this world. I love how simple ingredients come together and can make the most amazing flavor combinations. The eggplant is simply sauteed in a bit of garlic and olive oil, then tossed with fresh tomatoes and cilantro which offsets the frittata quite nicely. I’m all about cramming as many vegetables in as possible into all of my meals and this way just makes it so much easier. If you were having peeps over you could pair it up with a nice spring salad and you are on your way to one fabulous brunch.
