A fresh frittata with asparagus, peas, goat cheese, and herbs—perfect for brunch or a satisfying light meal.

# What You'll Need:

→ Vegetables

01 - 1 cup asparagus, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces
02 - 3/4 cup fresh or frozen peas
03 - 2 cups baby spinach, roughly chopped
04 - 2 spring onions, thinly sliced

→ Eggs & Dairy

05 - 8 large eggs
06 - 1/4 cup whole milk or cream

→ Herbs & Seasoning

09 - 2 tablespoons fresh chives, finely chopped
10 - 1 tablespoon fresh dill or parsley, chopped
11 - Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

# How to Make It:

01 - Preheat oven to 375°F.
02 - Melt butter in a large oven-safe nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add asparagus and cook for 2 minutes. Add peas and spring onions, sauté for an additional 2 minutes until bright and just tender. Stir in spinach and cook until wilted.
03 - Whisk eggs, milk or cream, chives, dill or parsley, salt, and pepper in a large mixing bowl until well combined.
04 - Pour the egg mixture evenly over vegetables in the skillet. Cook undisturbed for 3–4 minutes until edges begin to set and center remains slightly runny.
05 - Sprinkle goat cheese evenly over the top.
06 - Transfer skillet to the oven and bake for 10–12 minutes, until puffed and just set in the center.
07 - Remove from oven and let cool for 5 minutes. Slice and serve warm or at room temperature.

# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • The creamy goat cheese is a little secret weapon that keeps each bite from being boring.
  • It’s perfect for whenever you want to use up spring vegetables without making fussy salads.
02 -
  • If you rush the stovetop step, the spinach can turn watery and dull, so take your time.
  • Letting the frittata rest before slicing keeps the edges neat and helps flavors settle.
03 -
  • Using fresh herbs right at the end brightens the flavor and aroma.
  • Scattering cheese after the eggs start setting ensures creamy streaks instead of melting into the mix.
