    I made this for a brunch, starting it the night before and finishing baking it in the a.m. It was delicious and beautiful. Everyone was asking for the recipe. I will definitely keep this in my repertoire.

    I made this for dinner with my meat-and-potato parents over the holidays. They both loved it and my mom even asked for the recipe. I added a little minced garlic sauteed with the asparagus. When I make it again, I'll probably use more cheese.

    I've made this twice in the past week. It was that good the first time : I did add some mushrooms to the recipe because I had them on hand. Since I don't normally have cream in the house, I bought it---but made a mistake and bought heavy cream rather than whipping cream. I'm not even sure if there's a difference between the two (is there?, so I'm not sure if it made a significant difference. The frittata cooked up light and it looked beautiful. I plan to make this for holiday breakfasts when we have company, as well as making it for a quick, satisfying dinner.

    I made this dinner tonight for my husband because he needs to have low carb meals. This dish was fast, easy, healthy and cheap to make! The most expensive ingredient was the fontina cheese. This is a great meal for anytime but I will defintely make this on weeknights when I am short on time. Another excellent recipe from Giada!
    Thanks Giada!

    This is super easy to make but is beautiful and looks like it took a lot of effort. I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out perfect.

    I made this just as Giada says with the addition of some chopped up ham. It was a huge hit and the only complaint was that it wasn't big enough! Even my brother in law, who doesn't like asparagus, loved it!!

    Great recipe, but I used a little less salt than the recipe calls for and it was bordline too salty. Could be because my eggs were a little small or that I was using kosher salt, I don't know. Just be careful.

    I tried this to see if I would serve it at my B & B. I sauteed 3 cloves of minced garlic and a cup of chopped onion with the asparagus. It was fantastic. I also added some extra spices and sun dried tomatoes. Yum!!

    Very simple and easy dish. Next time, I might add some ham and some onion just to add some flavor..

    This past week, my husband, a diabetic, had part of his foot amputated due to bad eating habits and his weight. Since he has come home, I have been told I need to get all the fruits and vegetables into him I can so as to increase his ability to fight infection. Not an easy challenge for a man who's probably had two pieces of fruit (and those probably in pie and maybe one vegetable in the past year. I made this this morning (although I had to substitute glorious asparagus for the more banal broccoli because he can only go so far so fast, and he loved it. He didn't even pick out the tomatos. Too, it was possible to do it quickly in the morning, even while trying to find my 9 year old son's homework and a clean pair of socks! This is the sort of recipe I would recommend to anyone WITHOUT health issues. Quick and delicious.
