Ingredients
  

  • 4 to 5 Asparagus - trimmed and cut into 2-inch tips and pieces
  • 1/3 cup Extra-Virgin Olive Oil
  • 1 cup Green Onions - sliced using white and green parts
  • 1/2 lb. Red Potatoes - peeled and sliced
  • 1 packed cup Baby Spinach leaves - coarsely chopped organic if possible
  • 8 Large Eggs organic if possible
  • 2 tbsp. Fresh Italian parsley - chopped
  • 1 tsp. Fresh dill - chopped
  • Kosher Salt
  • 3 oz. Prosciutto - thinly sliced and cut into strips
  • 1/4 cup Parmesan - fresh grated

Instructions
 

  • Blanch the asparagus tips and pieces in blowing salted water for 2 minutes, so they turn bright green, then drain and rinse under cold water; set aside.
  • In an 8-inch non-stick frying pan, heat 1 tbsp. of the olive oil. Add the spinach and cook for 2 minutes, or until wilted. Remove from heat; set aside
In an 8-inch skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the green onion, reduce the heat to medium-low, and cook 4 to 5 minutes, without browning, stirring, until soft. Add the potatoes and cook, without browning, for about 15 minutes, stirring, until the tender. Transfer to a bowl.
  • In another bowl, beat the eggs, parsley, dill, and salt. Stir in the asparagus, potatoes, and spinach and prosciutto—Preheat the broiler.
  • Heat the remaining olive oil in the same skillet over medium heat. Add the egg and vegetable batter. Cook the frittata for about 7 to 8 minutes until the edges and bottom of the egg batter start to set - the middle will still be fairly runny.
Place the frittata under the broiler and broil until the egg batter is finished setting about 4 minutes.
  • Remove from the oven and transfer to a plate. Sprinkle with the parmesan cheese. Let it cool slightly and slice into wedges. The frittata can be served warm or at room temperature.
