Ingredients
Scale
- 8 oz. fresh asparagus, ends trimmed and cut into small pieces
- 2 tsp. olive oil (or more as needed)
- 2/3 cup diced cherry tomatoes
- 1 tsp. dried dill weed
- 4 oz. Havarti cheese, cut into small cubes
- 6 eggs, beaten well
- Spike seasoning, salt, and black pepper to taste
- Sliced green onions for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Trim the woody ends of the asparagus and cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces.
- Heat olive oil in a heavy oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add asparagus and cook for 3–4 minutes until slightly tender.
- Dice cherry tomatoes and Havarti cheese into small cubes.
- Add tomatoes and dried dill weed to the pan, cooking for another 1–2 minutes.
- In a bowl, whisk the eggs with Spike seasoning, salt, and pepper.
- Pour the beaten eggs over the asparagus and tomato mixture in the skillet.
- Sprinkle Havarti cheese evenly over the top.
- Cover the skillet and cook on low heat for 8–10 minutes, or until eggs are set and cheese is melted.
- Preheat the broiler while the frittata cooks.
- Transfer the skillet to the broiler and brown the top for 1–2 minutes, watching closely.
- Remove from heat, slice into wedges, garnish with green onions, and serve hot.
Notes
- Use fresh dill instead of dried for a brighter flavor.
- Any mild white cheese that melts well can replace Havarti.
- Watch closely under the broiler to prevent over-browning.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
- Reheat gently in the oven or microwave before serving.
