Ingredients
2 large eggs2.5 oz ricotta cheese (a little more than 1/4 cup)1 cup skim milk (you can use whole)1/2 cup chopped asparagus1 small green bell pepper, chopped1 very small onion (about 1.7 oz), chopped1.5 oz Swiss cheese diced or shredded2 Tbsp grated cheese (I use Romano)1 slice 2% American cheese1 Tbsp chopped chives1 tsp minced garlictsp olive oil
Directions
Put the chopped veggies in the microwave on high for about 40-60 seconds -- long enough to soften them and get out some of the liquid.

Preheat oven to 350.

Beat the eggs, add ricotta and milk. Mix well. Stir in Swiss and grated cheeses, and garlic.

Use oil to grease the bottom and sides of a casserole. Put veggies into casserole. Pour egg/cheese mixture over it. Tear up slice of American cheese and lay on top at even intervals. Garnish with chives.

Bake for about an hour, until the cheese starts to brown and the eggs are cooked. Cut into 4 servings.
