Asparagus and Ham Frittata Recipe

By Angela McGowan

This is a delicious frittata that is elegant and extremely easy. Frittatas are an Italian open-faced omelets. They can have any type of meat, cheese, and vegetable combinations. In traditional southern Italian cuisine, frittatas often contain some type of pasta, usually leftover from a previous meal. They are very simple to make, and easier than a traditional omelet with fillings, because you do not have to flip them. Fresh asparagus and ham make this frittata very easy, yet elegant enough for entertaining.
