Side Dish: Cheese & Asparagus Frittata
A low carb, quick, easy and delicious frittata.
Prep Time: 15 mins
Cook Time: 20 mins
Total Time: 35 mins
Ingredients
1 lb asparagus
4 large eggs
1 cup shredded low fat Swiss cheese
1 small sweet onion
1/2 tsp salt
2 tsps olive oil
Instructions
1. Snap the tough ends off of the asparagus and diagonally cut the spears into 1" lengths. Cut the onion into thin slices.
2. Heat olive oil in a 10" oven-proof frying pan over medium-high heat. Add onions and salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until onions are softened, about 3 minutes.
3. Add asparagus, reduce heat to medium-low, and cook, covered, until asparagus is barely tender, 6 to 8 minutes.
4. Lightly beat and add the eggs; cook until almost set, but still runny on top, about 2 minutes; pre-heat the broiler while the eggs cook.
5. Sprinkle cheese over eggs and place the pan in the oven; broil until the cheese is melted and lightly browned - 3 to 4 minutes.
6. Remove from oven and slide the frittata onto a serving plate.
7. Cut into wedges and serve immediately.
