¼ Tsp. salt
1/8 Tsp. fresh ground black pepper

DIRECTIONS
NOTE: When I’m going all out and want to impress, I make my own crust and use half and half. If I want to cut the calories, I’ve used Light Jarlsberg cheese and skim milk in the recipe. I’ve often cut the cheese to 4 ounces and have added more veggies. You can also turn this into a frittata by eliminating the crust completely. This is an old standby for me. I’ll make this using different cheese and veggies and then I can control how many calories and how much fat and or carbs I want to include. Play with this recipe….it is very forgiving and makes great lunches during the week.
