COOK TIME

PREPARATION TIME

12 Minutes

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 7 item large eggs
  • 1/4 cup skim or low-fat milk
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
  • 1 teaspoon salt (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
  • 8 item medium-size asparagus, trimmed
  • 1 item small yellow summer squash, cut in thin rounds

PREPARATION

In 10-inch ovenproof nonstick skillet, heat butter and oil over medium-low heat until melted. Preheat broiler, with the rack about 6 inches from the heat source. In large bowl, whisk eggs, milk and parsley together well. Stir in salt and pepper. Add egg mixture to skillet; cook over low heat, lifting a few times around edges with a spatula to let uncooked egg flow underneath. Cook until frittata is almost set in center, about 10 minutes. Meanwhile, in wide saucepan, bring 1 inch water to boil. Add asparagus flat; cook until crisp tender, about 1 to 2 minutes. Remove frittata from heat. Gently press the squash on top; add drained asparagus in a spoke pattern. Broil, watching carefully, until golden and cooked through in center, about 1 to 2 minutes. Using spatula, gently slide onto a plate. Delicious served with salad.
