Ingredients:

Serving

1/3 cup shelled fava beans
1/2 cup fresh morel mushrooms (about 2 oz)
1 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp grated fresh pecorino romano cheese, divided
1 tbsp finely chopped fresh parsley
2 tbsp light sour cream
1 tsp chopped fresh tarragon
1/4 tsp salt
1/8 tsp freshly ground black pepper
4 large eggs
2 large egg whites
fresh tarragon leaves (optional)

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350°.
Cook fava beans in boiling water 30 seconds. Remove with a slotted spoon, and plunge beans into ice water; drain well. Peel tough skins from beans.
Place mushrooms in a small bowl of cold water; swirl mushrooms gently to remove any grit. Drain; rinse well. Drain on paper towels, patting mushrooms dry.
Heat oil in an 8-inch ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms to pan; sauté 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. Remove from oven.
Preheat broiler.
Sprinkle top of frittata with remaining 1 tablespoon cheese. Broil 1 minute or until cheese melts. Garnish with fresh tarragon leaves, if desired.
