Tomato and Asparagus Frittata

A frittata is an Italian egg dish, similar to a crustless quiche. It’s simple to make — everything cooks in the same skillet — and it’s a great way to use up leftover vegetables and cheese. This recipe features roasted tomatoes, leeks, asparagus, and two types of cheese: Parmigiano-Reggiano and goat cheese. Leftovers pack well for lunch or breakfast on the go the next day.
