Step 1

In deep half of frittata pan over medium heat, melt 2 T. butter. Add green onions and 2 T. parsley; cook about 3 minutes. Transfer to small bowl. Wipe out pan.

In another bowl, whisk eggs and cream. Stir in green onion mixture, tasso, cheese, salt and pepper. In deep half of frittata pan over medium heat, melt 1 T. butter. Add egg mixture; cook, using rubber spatula to gently lift cooked edges and allow uncooked eggs to flow underneath, 7-10 minutes.
