Broccoli Cheddar Frittata **
bacon tomato jam. Served with vanilla yogurt, banana chips.Caramel Brioche Monkey Bread
fresh berries, whipped caramel. Served with vanilla yogurt, banana chips.Overnight Oats
blueberries, oat streusel. Served with ham, Brie, nuts, dried fruit.
I am wondering if the overnight oats might be doable (while avoiding the ham and Brie) given that vegan special meals tend to be unexciting. Anyone had this one recently? Your testimony about DL's special meals gives me hope, though!
Reporting on the Broccoli Cheddar Frittata.
JFK-SFO
76K.
The portions on this meal were HUGE. far and away the largest breakfast I’ve had on DL in a while.
no tomato/bacon jam, served with 4 slices of chewy-crisp bacon instead (cooked perfectly for me).
This frittata is one of DLs better egg dishes IMO. It’s less spongy than some of the quiches can be.
Great service from this rare San Francisco based crew.
