Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Egg Beaters (or liquid egg substitute)
- 1 bunch Asparagus
- 0.5 cup Onion, finely diced
- 0.5 cup Red bell pepper, chopped
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Olive oil (or cooking spray)
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 cup Low-fat shredded cheese (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Wash the asparagus and trim the tough ends. Cut the asparagus spears into 1-inch pieces.
Heat a nonstick, oven-safe skillet over medium heat and add olive oil or lightly spray with cooking spray.
Sauté the diced onion and red bell pepper in the skillet for 3-4 minutes until softened.
Add the minced garlic and asparagus pieces, cooking for another 3 minutes until the asparagus is tender-crisp.
Season the vegetables with salt and black pepper, stirring to combine.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the Egg Beaters (or liquid egg substitute). If desired, stir in the shredded low-fat cheese.
Pour the egg mixture evenly over the sautéed vegetables in the skillet. Do not stir.
Reduce the heat to low and cook on the stovetop for 5-7 minutes, or until the edges of the frittata start to set.
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the center is fully set and the top is lightly golden.
Carefully remove the skillet from the oven using an oven mitt. Allow the frittata to cool for 2-3 minutes before slicing and serving.
Slice into wedges and serve warm. Enjoy!
