Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

- Dice the red pepper into small cubes.
- Dice the ham into small pieces if not already done.
- Heat 1 teaspoon of butter in an oven-safe skillet over medium heat.
- Add the chopped asparagus and diced red pepper to the skillet. Sauté for about 3-5 minutes until the vegetables are starting to soften.
- Add the diced ham to the skillet and sauté for an additional 2-3 minutes until everything is well mixed and warmed through.
- In a medium bowl, crack the 6 eggs.
- Add a dash of salt and a dash of black pepper to the eggs.
- Whisk the eggs thoroughly until they are well beaten and the mixture is smooth.
- Pour the egg mixture over the sautéed vegetables and ham in the skillet.
- Sprinkle the grated parmesan cheese evenly over the top.
- Let the frittata cook on the stovetop for about 2-3 minutes until the edges start to set.
- Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the frittata is puffed up and golden brown, and a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Remove the frittata from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes.
- Slice into wedges and serve warm.
Tips:
- Make sure to evenly chop all vegetables to ensure they cook uniformly.
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best flavor.
- Feel free to add other vegetables of your choice for added nutrition and variety.
- Whisk the eggs thoroughly to incorporate air; this will result in a fluffier frittata.
- Cook the frittata on low heat to avoid browning the bottom too quickly.
