Bacon Asparagus Frittata is a skillet full of fresh veggies and fluffy eggs. You can throw it together fast for a breakfast that looks as good as it tastes! This one is stuffed with bacon, asparagus, mushrooms, tomatoes, onion, and garlic. So tasty and perfect for breakfast or brunch or even for supper.

What makes a frittata a frittata you ask? Well let me tell you. It doesn’t have a crust and you start making it on the stovetop and finish by baking it in the oven. A quiche for example has a crust and is baked entirely in the oven. 
You need a skillet that you can use on the stovetop and that you can put in the oven. A 10” inch cast iron skillet is perfect for the job. Click on this link for the one I have.

How to Make this Bacon Asparagus Frittata:

• sauté the bacon and veggies in the oil 
• whisk together the eggs, milk, and seasonings
• sprinkle the cheese on the veggies 
• pour the eggs over the top 
• bake in preheated oven until set 
• cut yourself a piece and enjoy! 

I love how easy it is to make a frittata and that it keeps well in the fridge for leftovers. Make a couple at the beginning of the week and it’ll feed you all week long. Try a frittata if you’re looking for a healthy nutritious start to your day. 
Feel free to get creative and experiment with any kind of meat or veggies that you have on hand. If I’m making this for the kids, I have to leave the mushrooms out because they’re not going to eat those! They don’t really care for the asparagus either. But they really like the bacon and cheese. Lol! 

Here’s to a good breakfast, here’s to eating lots of eggs, and here’s to a simple recipe that uses real ingredients and that tastes real good!
