Servings: persons

2 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 leek chopped
5 ounces fresh spinach
12 ounces asparagus chopped into 1 inch pieces
8 ounces cremini mushrooms sliced
5 whole eggs
4 egg whites
1 1/4 cups shredded fontina cheese divided
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese divided
1/8 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1/8 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup fresh flat leaf parsley chopped
1/4 cup fresh basil chopped
1 teaspoon fresh thyme minced

1
Preheat oven to 325.
2
In a 10-inch ovenproof skillet over medium heat, saute the leek in butter and olive oil until soft.
3
Increase the heat to medium-high and add the asparagus and mushrooms.
4
Saute for 3 minutes.
5
Meanwhile, boil some water (I tend to do this in the microwave) and wilt the spinach leaves.
6
Wring dry, being sure to get rid of the excess moisture.
7
Chop the leaves, and add the spinach to the rest of the vegetables and sprinkle with a bit of salt and pepper.
8
In a large bowl, whisk eggs, egg whites, 1 cup Fontina cheese, 1/8 cup Parmesan, seasonings, and the fresh herbs.
9
Add to saute pan, sprinkle with remaining cheeses, and bake for about 35 minutes until edges are golden brown and eggs are set.
10
I like serving this with a quickly assembled sauce of jarred pizza sauce mixed with some red pepper sauce like Frank's Red Hot Sauce.
11
Just mix together, heat, and serve.
