Note

You can substitute 1 pound of fresh asparagus (about 2 cups, cut into 1-inch pieces) for the frozen asparagus. If using fresh, consider sautéing it lightly before adding to ensure it cooks through.

For a variation, try using cheddar or mozzarella cheese instead of Swiss. You can also add diced bell peppers or mushrooms to the vegetable layer.

This dish is best served fresh from the oven. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the microwave or oven until warm.
