Preheat oven to 350°. Lightly coat a 10-inch quiche pan with nonstick cooking spray. In a steamer, steam asparagus until just tender, about 3 minutes. Remove asparagus from steamer and allow to cool. Chop asparagus stems and reserve tips for garnish. In a blender or food processor, purée cottage cheese, chopped asparagus stems, scallion, parsley, egg, egg whites, mustard and mozzarella.
Pour mixture into prepared quiche pan. Arrange reserved asparagus tips on top. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Bake for 35 minutes, or until set.
