How to make asparagus frittata:

Cook asparagus according to package directions, if frozen. If fresh, cook in a small amount of boiling water for 8 to 10 minutes or until crisp-tender. Drain spears. Reserve 3 spears for garnish. Cut remaining asparagus into 1-inch pieces. Set aside. Beat eggs until foamy. Add cottage cheese, mustard, salt and pepper; beat and set aside. Spray a 10-inch ovenproof skillet with nonstick spray coating. Cook mushrooms over medium heat until tender, then stir in asparagus pieces. Pour egg mixture over mushrooms and asparagus (put 3 reserved spears on top). Cook mixture over low heat about 5 minutes or until mixture bubbles slightly and begins to set around the edges. Bake, uncovered, in a 400° oven about 10 minutes or until set. Garnish each serving with tomato. Serves 4.
