Leek, Spinach, and Cauliflower Frittata

I just spent the day helping a friend and a group of strangers clean up a farm destroyed by a tornado that tore through KY last Friday. I’m tired, both physically and emotionally. I have no words for what my eyes saw today. Many folks on surrounding farms have been left with nothing. My heart aches. However, it does the heart wonders to see a community come together for the good of a neighbor, know or unknown. I don’t even know the owners of the farm but I am glad they are alive; a miracle for certain.
Coming home tonight, I just wanted an easy meal but I wanted more just to sit with my family and remind them of my love.
So here it is, and meal prepared in 15 minutes plus baking time and a great reason to hash the day over with my husband and 3 yet to become men.
