This is from the Kraft Food & Family catalog. I doubled the recipe and baked it in a 9x13 dish. I have also substituted spinach for the basil, excellent both ways.

NIF'S EASY CHEESY HAM AND POTATO FRITTATA - 4 WW PTS.



Nif's Easy Cheesy Ham and Potato Frittata - 4 Ww Pts. image

I like to make frittatas with pasta or potatoes when I'm feeding a few of us and this is what I made this morning for brunch. This is one of the lighter ones, but you can use full fat ingredients if you want to. Just DON'T SKIP THE BAKING POWDER - you'll be surprised how fluffy this makes your eggs. Enjoy!
