Cuisine Italian
Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 20 minutes

Ingredients

  • 10 large eggs
  • ½ cup heavy cream
  • 2 Tbsp olive oil
  • ½ cup cheese crumbled (I used mozzarella)
  • ½ cup green onions chopped (I used garlic scapes since we had a bunch)
  • 1 cup chopped asparagus
  • Sea salt and black pepper to taste
  • A sprinkle of fresh herbs for garnish I used parsley and dill

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F
  • Wash and chop all the vegetables. In a medium bowl, combine the green onions and asparagus. Feel free to add additional produce that you might have in your garden. We have a lot of greens right now, so I threw in some kale as well.
  • Heat the olive oil in a 12-inch cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the vegetables and sauté for about 5 minutes until they are tender. Season with sea salt and black pepper.
  • In another medium bowl, whisk together the eggs and heavy cream until well combined. Add a pinch of salt and black pepper.
  • Pour the egg mixture over the sautéed vegetables in the skillet. Reduce the heat to medium and cook for about 2-3 minutes, gently stirring with a wooden spoon to combine everything evenly. Sprinkle the cheese evenly on top of the mixture.
  • Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake at 400°F (190°C) for about 15 minutes, or until the frittata is set (no liquid) and the top is golden brown.
  • Remove the frittata from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Garnish with a sprinkle of fresh herbs and serve warm or at room temperature.
