Leftover Crab Frittata

Our last blooming azalea has run amoke - it's 9' from the walk to the wall.  It probably said "grows 4' across and 3' tall" on the tag when we bought it.

We had a piece of the frittata left from dinner the other night and as you might expect, I had it for breakfast. I believe it was just as good reheated as it was originally, especially with no crust to be soggy. I sided with my frequent cottage cheese and tomatoes all atop some of our gourmet lettuce - I'm working on my presentations.

And yes Mommy, I did eat all of the greenery – no way am I going to nurse those little plants in the greenhouse, plant them in the garden, feed and water them, harvest and wash them, then use them for garnish and toss in the compost container. I cut every bite with a knife to ensure lettuce with each one and unlike Iceberg, this lettuce actually has some good food value. From about.com:

“Iceberg lettuce is the most popular of all the lettuce types. Gram for gram, iceberg lettuce has much less nutritional value than the darker lettuces.”

“Green leaf lettuce contains large amounts of vitamins A and K, plus the antioxidants beta carotene and lutein.”
