Bacon & Radicchio Frittata

Sometimes it is so easy just to throw together a frittata with items you have in your refrigerator or pantry. The nice thing about frittatas is that they are good for breakfast lunch or dinner. This Bacon & Radicchio Frittata is my way of using fresh garden greens (unfortunately my garden isn’t ready and the radicchio is store bought this time) along with my favorite breakfast friend…..Bacon. LOL Let me know what you think about my version of a Bacon & Radicchio Frittata and y’all enjoy.
