Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Step 2
Wash the asparagus and trim the tough ends. Cut the asparagus spears into 1-inch pieces.
Step 3
Heat a nonstick, oven-safe skillet over medium heat and add olive oil or lightly spray with cooking spray.
Step 4
Sauté the diced onion and red bell pepper in the skillet for 3-4 minutes until softened.
Step 5
Add the minced garlic and asparagus pieces, cooking for another 3 minutes until the asparagus is tender-crisp.
Step 6
Season the vegetables with salt and black pepper, stirring to combine.
Step 7
In a medium bowl, whisk together the Egg Beaters (or liquid egg substitute). If desired, stir in the shredded low-fat cheese.
Step 8
Pour the egg mixture evenly over the sautéed vegetables in the skillet. Do not stir.
Step 9
Reduce the heat to low and cook on the stovetop for 5-7 minutes, or until the edges of the frittata start to set.
Step 10
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.
Step 11
Carefully remove the skillet from the oven using an oven mitt. Allow the frittata to cool for 2-3 minutes before slicing and serving.
Step 12
Slice into wedges and serve warm. Enjoy!
