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

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!
