Simple... Sweet... Smoked Salmon

In a convergence of surplus ingredients in my fridge last night that was random on an almost cosmic scale, I happened to have fresh chives, cream cheese, smoked salmon, and lots of eggs, all of which needed to be cooked and eaten ASAP. I made a smoked salmon fritatta, the recipe for which I found -- where else? -- on Epicurious. It was extremely tasty and oh-so-easy to make. Even if you are not like me, and the mere though of smoked salmon does not make you do a little jogging dance on the kitchen counter, you will probably still like it. Smoked salmon has that distinct but light flavor that makes you feel much better after eating it with lots of eggs and cheese than, say, sausage does. We had it with some fruit salad and gewurtztraminer (my favorite kind of wine). It definitely hit the spot.
