Garden Fresh Frittata Divorciada – Recipe by Rancho La Puerta Spa
Fresh vegetables and eggs–what could be better? But what does “Divorciada” name? It’s all in the presentation, where we place a wedge on twin sauces, red chile and green tomatillo. Classic Huevos Rancheros is often served “divorce style” – named because small pools of red and green sauce beneath sunny side-up eggs are separated by beans. In this recipe, garden fresh frittata is served on a dish of colorful sauces.
