MAGGIDEW
"This is one of my favorites. The most important thing (I think) is to cook it slowly so the eggs stay tender."

Ready In
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
- Melt butter in an oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Stir in olive oil and asparagus, and cook until the asparagus is tender, about 10 minutes. Stir in the mushrooms, and continue cooking about 5 minutes.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, water, and thyme. Pour into the skillet, and reduce heat to low. Cover, and cook 5 minutes.
- Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven. Bake 10 to 15 minutes, until eggs are no longer runny. Top the mixture with Parmesan cheese and mozzarella cheese. Turn on the broiler, and broil until cheeses are melted and lightly browned.

i was not sure what a frittata was when i made this, so i'm not sure how well it turned it out. i was not particularly fond of it, but the rest of my family seemed to like it.

This recipe had a WONDERFUL taste. All of our family gobbled it up - even the 2 and 1 year old! I did make quite a few "tweaking"-like changes though. To the ingredients I added 1 tsp. hot sa...

Yummy, even for a light dinner. I shortened my cooking time on the asparagus, otherwise mine would have been overdone.

This was so good and so easy. I've made it 3 times and we actually like it better without the cheese.

A really good vegetarian main meal; even my irritable meat-eating family thought it was substantial enough. I'll make it again.
