1 shallot, minced
cloves garlic, minced
3 tablespoons parsley
1/3 lb aspargus
5 tablespoons grated Parmesan
4 oz goat cheese, grated or otherwise reduced to small pieces
1/2 teaspoon salt

6 eggs, or egg beaters


Steps:

1. adjust oven rack to upper-middle position and heat oven to 350 degrees.

2. heat oil in 10-inch non stick skillet over medium heat. Swirl skillet to distribute evenly over bottom and sides. Add shallots and garlic, saute until softened. Add parsley and aspargus; cook gently for 5 minutes or so to soften. Spread in single layer.

3. Meanwhile, stir Parmesan and goat cheese,salt, pepper and beaten eggs together.Gently pour into skillet,stir lightly with a fork until edges start to set.
