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 teaspoons 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

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  2. In a large enameled cast iron or oven-safe skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the sweet potatoes, season with salt and pepper, and spread them out evenly in a single layer. Cook untouched for 6-8 minutes, then stir and cook for another 6-8 minutes.
  3. Add the remaining olive oil to the skillet, then add the asparagus, garlic powder, cumin, onion powder, red pepper flakes, and season with salt and pepper. Sauté for 8-10 minutes until the asparagus is al dente.
  4. While the asparagus is cooking, whisk together the eggs, milk, and additional salt and pepper in a large bowl. Stir in about two-thirds of the crumbled goat cheese.
  5. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the vegetables in the pan and let it cook for 3-4 minutes until the bottom begins to set. Sprinkle the remaining goat cheese on top.
  6. Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes or until the eggs are firm.
  7. Slice the frittata into 6 pieces and serve with your choice of toppings, such as avocado, fresh parsley, green onions, and hot sauce.
