Maggie’s Tips
  • Frittata leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days or can be frozen but the texture does change. Frittata is really best cooked on the day.
  • Frittata is so versatile. You can eat it for breakfast, brunch, dinner, supper and fantastic in lunch-boxes. A super way of using up leftovers.
