Smoked Salmon Frittata

Last week I had scheduled in my menu plan to make asparagus frittata from a magazine recipe. However, when I opened the fridge for dinner, I discovered that my asparagus had gone off, so I had to think of an alternative at the last minute. After looking through my pantry and fridge I put together the ingredients for a smoked salmon frittata.

I didn't make any exact measurements, but the ingredients were as follows:
  • smoked salmon
  • eggs
  • cream
  • whole milk
  • kalamata olives
  • onion
  • salt
  • black pepper
  • cream cheese
The recipe turned out very well. The only thing I would change would be to use less than the half package of cream cheese, the taste was too rich and I would add 3/4 to the whole package of smoked salmon (I only used half). I might add more than the 10 olives as well, as they added saltiness and tang. I baked my frittata in a cake pan, I prefer to do them that way, the eggs dont burn as easily. All in all a great new way to use some extra pantry and fridge staples!
