I am loving parsnips this season and thought I would try adding them to this morning’s frittata. This isn’t just any frittata, it so happens to be gluten-free, grain-free, and lectin-free as well.
I was pleasantly surprised with the combination of flavors; spinach, Parmesan cheese, garlic and sweet onion. I used no seasoning at all and found this Parsnip and Spinach Frittata so delightful with a hint of sweetness.
