In 2-quart casserole, combine butter, and onion. Microwave on Medium until butter melts and onion is clear, 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently.

In mixing bowl, combine eggs, milk, salt, parsley, rosemary and cayenne. Beat until well blended. Pour into casserole over the onion mixture. Stir in ham, mushrooms and half the cheese.
