Makes: 4 to 8 servings

What You Need

1
cup small fresh asparagus pieces
1
cup sliced mushrooms
1/2

cup thin red bell pepper strips
1/2
cup flaked crab meat (2 oz.)

Here’s How

  2. BEAT eggs, water and Italian seasoning in medium bowl until blended. STIR IN mozzarella cheese; pour over crab mixture in skillet. COOK over medium heat until eggs are set at edges, 5 to 8 minutes. SPRINKLE with Parmesan cheese.

  • To serve, slide uncut frittata topside-up onto platter, or invert it onto platter to show its nicely-browned bottom.
