Spring-like Weather Calls for Asparagus!

The weather here has totally done a 360 from freezing and wet 40's to warm and sunny 60's! It totally feels like spring and nothing says "spring" to me like asparagus. These are some Mini Frittatas packed with asparagus, tomatoes and mushrooms. So simple but so incredibly good and healthy too! I'm hoping our weather stays this nice!


Ingredients: (12 Mini Frittatas)

1 Tbsp vegetable oil
1/2 lb asparagus, bottoms snapped of and chopped
4 oz mushrooms, sliced
2 Roma tomatoes, seeded and diced
1 tsp dried thyme
Salt and pepper to taste
4 eggs
1/3 c milk
1 tsp curry powder

Prep:

1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray 12 muffin cups with cooking spray.

2. Heat a medium skillet over medium heat with vegetable oil. Add the asparagus, mushrooms, tomatoes, thyme, salt and pepper. sauté until asparagus is tender, about 5 minutes. Divide vegetable mixture among prepared muffin cups.

3. In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and curry powder. Pour over vegetable mixture in muffin cups.

4. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the egg has set. Let rest for 5 minutes before unmolding.

I know! This is January weather? Hello?? Not that I'm complaining. I mean, who would balk at being able to wear a short-sleeve shirt in winter? ;)
