Asparagus Omelet with Polenta Crust

This recipe came to me in a Runner's World email! Here is the original recipe.

Ingredients:

Crust
3 cups vegetable broth
3/4 cup yellow cornmeal (coarser is better)
1 T fresh dill or 1 teaspoon dry*
1 tsp fresh pepper

Filling
3/4 lb fresh asparagus (7.5 oz after trimmed)
1/2 green pepper (80g)
Most of 1 zucchini (225g)
4 large eggs
1/2 c low-fat milk
1/3 c grated onion
1-1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp fresh ground pepper
3/4 c shredded swiss cheese

Directions:
Bring broth to a boil, whisk in cornmeal slowly. Reduce heat and simmer 30 minutes; stir frequently the first four minutes, then mix every few minutes, always stirring in the same direction. When the polenta pulls away from the side of the pot, it's done. Add pepper and dill* and mix. Spread polenta evenly in a pie pan.

Snap off the bottoms of each asparagus. Cut into two-inch pieces and blanch for three minutes in boiling water. Clean and cut green pepper and zucchini. Whisk together eggs and add milk, onion, salt, and pepper. In bottom of shell, place peppers and asparagus. Top with cheese. Pour egg mix over all and bake at 375F for 45 minutes.
Makes 4 servings.

*Note: The original recipe lists dill in the ingredients but not in the directions. So the dill in ours was sprinkled over the top, but it would be even more delicious in the polenta where it is supposed to be! :)
