Wonderful breakfast. I cut the recipe in half but there was still half left. I upped the temp to 300 deg. and baked for 20 min. It puffed up beautifully and the flavor is wonderful. I used fontina cheese instead of swiss as it needed to be used.

Easy, great tasting Frittata. I didn't pre cook the asparagus, onion, garlic just layered all the ingredients in my cast iron pan placing the asparagus on last. Baked at 350 for 30 minutes. I used low fat cheese and cut the recipe back to 3 eggs (Half the recipe) It was a lovely light dinner. . Thanks for posting Kathy
