Whisk together the eggs, salmon, cheese herbs and spices, put aside. In a 12 inch cast iron skillet, heat oil and butter. When hot, saut the asparagus and onions the onions are translucent.
Add the egg mixture. Tilt the skillet slightly and turn to coat the ingredients in the skillet with the egg mixture. Keep on medium heat and cook until just beginning to set.
Place int the oven about 10 minutes or until the top is just beginning to brown. Check to make sure it is fully cooked by sticking it with a thin knife. Continue to bake if it is really runny.
Remove from pan and slice.My thoughts:I've been ready for spring since, oh, the end of last October. I was overjoyed to find some asparagus that was actually tasty and not woody and bland. I may have bought two pounds of it. Eggs always make me think of spring so I made this eggy delight for dinner one warmish evening with ingredients I had on hand. What, you don't have lox and Stilton on hand? Stock up! You are missing out.
Recommended wine: Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Sauvignon Blanc
Salmon on the menu? Try pairing with Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Sauvignon Blanc. To decide on white or red, you should consider your seasoning and sauces. Chardonnay is a great friend to buttery, creamy dishes, while sauvignon blanc can complement herb or citrus-centric dishes. A light-bodied, low-tannin red such as the pinot noir goes great with broiled or grilled salmon. The Chateau Ste. Michelle Indian Wells Chardonnay Wine with a 5 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 18 dollars per bottle.

Chateau Ste. Michelle Indian Wells Chardonnay Wine
"Our Indian Wells Chardonnay delivers an appealing tropical fruit character typical of warm sites like the Wahluke Slope. I like this Chardonnay's ripe pineapple and butterscotch flavors and rich, creamy texture. Try it with Scallops, scampi or pasta with rich sauces." - Bob Bertheau
