Asparagus Torta

This recipe comes from the inside wrapper on the asparagus from James' family's farm!

Ingredients
2 lbs asparagus cleaned and trimmed
6 eggs
3 Tbsp virgin olive oil, divided
1 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
1-1/4 Cups Parmesan cheese
1 Cup seasoned bread crumbs

Preparation
Preheat oven to 375°F, oil bottom and sides of an 8x8x2 pan. Cook asparagus until tender and let cool, cut into small pieces. Beat eggs with 1 Tbsp of olive oil, and asparagus, salt and pepper, mix well. Add cheese and breadcrumbs to mixture. Pour into prepared pan and drizzle a little olive oil on top. Bake approximately 45 minutes, until nice and brown. Cool and cut into squares to serve.

Tip(!): When we're feeling really special, we use just the tips of the asparagus to make this recipe, reserving the stalks for a shaved salad.
