Swiss Chard Potato Chive Frittata

January 7, 2019 by Diane O'Neal

The frittata, an egg-based Italian classic dish, is a great go-to recipe for that mix of vegetables you have from a CSA bag but aren't sure what else to do with. This frittata recipe was inspired by chef and food blogger Kara Lydon's CSA surplus. She describes: "one key to a frittata is adding a flavor punch – whether it be garlic, onions, fresh herbs or spices. So for this frittata, I let the chives do the flavor work. I also added some Greek yogurt in place of cream to make the frittata richer and a little more nutritious."
