    Method: 

    Preheat oven to 400°F. In an oven-proof skillet on the stovetop, heat olive oil and sauté onion until barely softened. In a medium bowl, beat eggs then add cheese. Pour into hot pan. Top with ham and asparagus. Turn heat to low and cook 2—3 minutes to seal bottom. Place pan with frittata in oven and cook an additional 20 minutes or until puffed and barely set. Remove and cool slightly. Serve with dressed spring greens.
