  \n <\/p>\n

  \n
  1. Preheat your oven to 425 degrees F.<\/li>\n
  2. In a medium (8-inch) skillet, lightly saut\u00e9 the chopped onions & asparagus pieces in a bit of olive oil, salt & pepper. Remove from the pan after just a few minutes.<\/li>\n
  3. Blend eggs, water, salt and pepper in a blender until combined and lightly foamy<\/li>\n
  4. Wipe out the skillet you used previously and coat it with a bit of olive oil. Pour in the eggs and add half of the veggies. Put the skillet in the oven, and bake for 15 minutes. Then (carefully, without moving the skillet around too much), add the rest of the veggies and the cheeses. Continue to bake for another 15 minutes or until the Frittata is puffed up and the eggs are set.<\/li>\n
  5. Top with chopped tarragon, a grind of pepper and a few red pepper flakes. Let cool before slicing.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
