If you have a CSA share, shop at the farmer’s market, or have your own garden, you have probably been enjoying fresh, seasonal veggies all summer long! As these summer veggies begin to wane with the cooling temperatures, it is fun to find ways to throw them all together into one meal that celebrates summer.
That was our idea behind this Confetti Frittata, named for all of the diced up veggies in a variety of colors. The best part about this recipe is that you can use almost any veggies, and even meat, you have on-hand left-over from other meals or scraped from the last harvest from your garden. Its rainbow of colors means you’re getting a lot of different nutrients, too, in addition to the vitamins and nutrients found in eggs!
