IMHO it should freeze well, there's not too much texture in a frittata.
And yes, it has to be of a certain size, usually 6 eggs or more.

See evidence-based medicine link I posted earlier.

For some people, eating lots of eggs (more than one/day)
would start to add measurable risk. It's not a huge
amount of risk but it's statistically significant.

Save the shells! They are a great source of ph balance for your
compost heap. Especially if your compost consists of lots of leaves
and coffee grounds<g>

Following up on own post to eliminate excessive replies...

I want to thank *everyone* for their terrific suggestions. Some, although
great ideas, weren't appropriate for my timing just now, but saved for some
future date, another crop of lemons, and another chocolate angel food cake.
What I did...

I made several jars of lemon curd, a pint of mayo with light olive oil, and a
lemon meringue pie. Lemon curd keeps well, we have been usiing the mayo, and
the lemon meringue pie is all gone. :-)

Thanks again, everybody!
