Asparagus Frittata

I changed out the cheddar cheese and replaced it with 4tbspn of ricotta whole milk cheese, blended gently with a fork and right before serving placed under broiler ( making sure pan handle is not.in oven) until litely browned. Major differnce on taste - that is the Italian method.

A perfect centerpiece for a lazy Sunday brunch. I was tempted to add sun-dried tomatoes but held off, and glad I did. As presented, the asparagus really shine through and are well complemented by the cheese, in my case a mix of soy gouda and soy mozzarella. I made a slightly lighter version by replacing 2 of the eggs with 4 egg whites and all the butter with a single tablespoon of fancy extra extra virgin olive oil. (Thank heavens for a good non-stick skillet.) Served with a mixed green and strawberry salad and a roasted tomato sauce on the side. Thanks!

Wonderful main dish method of preparing asparagus! I add freshly grated parmigiana reggiano and torn basil leaves to mine. Spectacular frittata!

Very quick and easy way to do a frittata. The asparagus cooks very quicky, on about 3-4 minutes and mine were tender. I finished in the oven which took about 8 minutes to doneness. Thanks! Go JEFES! Made for ZWT4

I had forgotten how quick and easy frittatas are until I prepared this. There is very little effort for a whole lot of flavor. I did not boil the asparagus, but steamed them in the microwave instead, which really sped things up. I agree with Lavender Lynn that this invites varied ingredients, and will definitely be playing with this for a long time. Thanks for a great, easy recipe. Made for ZWT4.

Easy, delicious, and a low-carb breakfast for us with leftovers for lunch! Once the method is in place, this invites varied ingredients, and we would probably add mushrooms and onions -- but asparagus is a favorite here and great in this. Made for Zaar World Tour '08.

Overall, a great, fast dinner idea. Great served with fried potatoes and salad. It seemed a little bland but spiced up nicely with a little garlic powder, white pepper and parsley, and I bet it would be even more delicious with some extra cheese, as other reviewers suggested. Thanks for a great recipe!

This made a delicious brunch. The recipe reduced well to serve 2. The asparagus was trimmed and cut into 1/2 inch lengths then cooked in the boiling water, drained, and rinsed. After the butter was melted, the cooked asparagus was added back to the pan, the eggs were poured over and all was topped with cheese. Instead of putting this under the broiler, the frittata was flipped onto a plate then slipped back into the pan to brown the top side. Served with fresh sliced tomatoes and Honeymoon Sourdough Biscuits.

This frittata is wonderful! It is light and fluffy in the center and browned and a little crunchy on the bottom and top. I did broil this in the oven for about 5-7 minutes, per suggestions in cooking instructions. I used monterey jack for the cheese. I love asparagus and this was a great way to have a one dish meal for dinner tonight. I also sprinkled a little Tabasco sauce on my portion~yum!
