Thanks to the three sisters who write the blog Natural Sweet Recipes, we present you with the perfect frittata!
Mozzarella is one of my favorite cheeses and in the days before diabetes, pizza was my favorite food. So you can imagine how excited I am to share a recipe that’s low carb, but yet reminiscent of pizza. Calling it pizza-like would be a bit of stretch, I know. But with mozzarella, tomato, and basil, how can you not think of pizza? And how can it not be delicious?
This baked tomato basil and mozzarella frittata works well for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, and is very easy to make. – Jessica Apple

What you do when your friend gives you lotsa basil? Make a basil-y frittata that takes advantage of late summer bounty!
I made this but used regular milk, doubled the garlic, added some steamed broccoli & summer squash, and sprinkled some Parmesan on top. Tasty all around.
Looks yummy!
