Ingredients
Scale
- 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
- 3 cups diced sweet potato (14 ounces/2 small-medium potatoes)
- 3 cups roughly chopped asparagus (315 grams)
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 12 large eggs
- 1/2 cup whole milk
- 3 ounces goat cheese (about 3/4 cup crumbled)
- salt and pepper, to taste
- for topping – avocado, fresh parsley, sliced green onions, hot sauce…
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- In a large enameled cast iron or oven-safe skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Add the sweet potatoes, season with salt and pepper, and spread them out evenly. Let them cook untouched for 6-8 minutes, then stir and continue to cook for another 6-8 minutes.
- Next, add the remaining oil and toss in the asparagus along with garlic powder, cumin, onion powder, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper. Sauté for 8-10 minutes until the asparagus reaches al dente texture.
- While cooking the asparagus, whisk together the eggs, milk, and a pinch of salt and pepper in a large bowl. Stir in about two-thirds of the crumbled goat cheese.
- Pour the egg mixture evenly into the pan over the cooked vegetables. Allow it to cook for 3-4 minutes until the bottom is set, then sprinkle the remainder of the goat cheese on top.
- Transfer the pan to the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, until the eggs are fully set.
- Once cooked, slice into 6 pieces and serve with desired toppings.
Notes
Feel free to customize the toppings to your preference; avocado and parsley add a fresh touch.
This frittata works great as a meal prep option, storing well in the refrigerator for several days.
For a spicy kick, serve with your favorite hot sauce.
