Short on time and extra cash? Frittatas make for a perfect meal at any time of the day. They're fast, filling and help you use up all those leftover veggies lying around in the fridge.
While you can use a wide variety of vegetables in your frittata, we've focused on some special in-season produce, like asparagus and parsley. Follow the easy frittata recipe below to fill your home with the delicious scent of spring veggies.

Spring cleaning tips
When you start cooking up a storm, you blinds can bear the brunt! If your kitchen blinds are looking a little worse for wear, grab an old (but clean) sock. Put the sock on your hand and run it along any surface to pick up dust, grease or grime.
It's an easy way to spot clean venetian blinds and vertical blinds.
