Heat oil in an 8-inch ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat.
Add mushrooms to pan; saut 5 minutes or until browned.
Combine 1 tablespoon cheese, parsley, and next 6 ingredients (through egg whites) in a medium bowl; stir with a whisk. Stir in mushrooms and beans.
Add egg mixture to pan; cook 1 minute, stirring gently.
Place pan in oven; bake at 350 for 8 minutes or until edges are puffed and center is almost set.
Sprinkle top of frittata with remaining 1 tablespoon cheese. Broil 1 minute or until cheese melts.
Garnish with fresh tarragon leaves, if desired.
