Quick and Easy Baked Mediterranean Omelet

I made this omelet on a whim with whatever I had on hand in the fridge and it came out so delicious, as do most things turn out when you cook without waste. I had to share the recipe, especially since it was so quick and easy to make. It’s much easier if you roast the squash ahead of time and blanch the asparagus ahead of time, or perhaps use the brined versions in a jar. If you prep it all beforehand, you can whip it up really quickly for breakfast. If not, use whatever else you have on hand that’s just easy toa add (tomatoes and peppers come to mind). Enjoy!
