POTATO, LEEK, AND CHARD FRITTATA

This Potato and Leek Fritatta is just what a lazy Sunday morning breakfast calls for. Potato, leek and chard are quickly cooked up in a skillet before pouring over some eggs and finishing off cooking it in the oven. It's quick and simple and also free from dairy and gluten.
