Asparagus bacon frittata
Cooking Steps
1. Cook bacon in a large cast iron skillet until crispy. Remove from pan and let cool on paper towels.
2. Add sliced onion to bacon grease, adding a bit more if needed. Keep heat at medium low and let onions cook slowly to get caramelized (about 10 minutes). Stir occasionally.
3. When onions are soft, add the chopped garlic and stir. Let cook one minute until garlic is fragrant.
4. Add asparagus and turn heat up to medium. Let cook for 5-10 minutes, or until asparagus is cooked to desired doneness.
5. Meanwhile, chop your cooled bacon into small strips. Turn on the oven to the broil setting.
6. When asparagus is done, stir in chopped bacon. Then pour the eggs over the asparagus mixture and make sure it covers everything evenly.
7. Let cook on the stovetop for about 2 minutes, then transfer to the oven (on a middle rack). Cook in oven for 5-10 minutes or until the eggs are cooked through and no longer appear wet on top.
8. Remove from oven and serve!

Amazingly good. Super simple to make.
Making this right now for our dinner and can’t begin to tell you how amazing it smells!!! Can’t wait to taste it!
We did not have any bacon on hand but had Canadian bacon from the local farmer’s whole foods co-op and it seems to be working out great!
Well, the verdict is in. The whole family scarfed up every last bite. The only bad thing I have to say is that I didn’t make enough! Delicious!
I am currently on day 3 of the 21 DSD and am very glad to find these recipes. I am printing this one to try with the family on the weekend!
If I were to bake instead of using the broiler what would the temperature be put on in the oven and for how long? My broil setting does not work in the oven. Thank you for any advice. The ingredients look delicious.
