Ingredients:

2 sweet potatos
400g
1 cup spinach
30g
1/2 cup feta cheese
120g
1/3 cup olives
72g
6 eggs
300g
1/3 cup milk (1% fat)
80g
1/2 cup cherry tomatoes
90g

Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a baking dish or an ovenproof skillet with some olive oil or cooking spray.
2. Prepare the Sweet Potatoes:
- Place the diced sweet potatoes in a microwave-safe bowl. Add a splash of water, cover with microwave-safe wrap or a plate, and cook on high for 5-7 minutes or until tender. Alternatively, you can steam them on the stovetop until they are soft.
3. Prepare the Egg Mixture:
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the 6 eggs and 1/3 cup of milk until well combined. Season with a pinch of salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
4. Combine the Ingredients:
- Add the cooked sweet potatoes, 1 cup of chopped spinach, 1/2 cup of crumbled feta cheese, and 1/3 cup of sliced olives to the egg mixture. Gently fold all the ingredients together until evenly distributed.
5. Prepare the Baking Dish:
- Pour the egg and vegetable mixture into the prepared baking dish or skillet, spreading it out evenly.
6. Add Cherry Tomatoes:
- Arrange the halved cherry tomatoes on top of the frittata mixture, cut side up.
7. Bake the Frittata:
- Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the frittata is set in the center and lightly golden on top. To check for doneness, insert a knife into the center of the frittata; if it comes out clean, the frittata is ready.
8. Serve:
- Once baked, remove the frittata from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing. Serve warm, garnished with additional fresh herbs or a light salad on the side if desired.

Tips:

- Pre-cook the sweet potatoes by roasting or steaming them until tender before adding them to the frittata. This helps to ensure they cook thoroughly and evenly.

- Use fresh spinach for a vibrant flavor, but if you only have frozen spinach, make sure to thaw and drain it well to avoid excess moisture in the frittata.

- Try adding other fresh herbs like basil or parsley for an extra burst of flavor.

- If you prefer a creamier texture, substitute half of the milk with a dollop of Greek yogurt.

- Bake the frittata in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for about 25-30 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the top is golden brown. Let it cool for a few minutes before slicing.

Enjoy your baked frittata warm, either on its own or with a side of fresh salad. It's a fantastic way to incorporate more vegetables into your diet and can be easily customized to include your favorite ingredients. Keep this recipe in your repertoire for a quick, healthy, and delicious meal.
