Kale, sweet potato and onion frittata

This nutritious and delicious Kale, Sweet Potato, and Onion Frittata is a perfect meal for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Combining the rich flavors of sweet potatoes, fresh kale, and savory onions with a blend of whole eggs and egg whites, this dish is both healthy and satisfying.

Instructions:

1. Preheat Oven:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. Prepare Egg Mixture:
In a large bowl, whisk together the 3 egg yolks and 8 egg whites until well combined. Season with a dash of salt and a dash of black pepper. Set aside.
3. Cook Sweet Potato:
Heat 1 tsp of olive oil in a large, oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Add the diced sweet potato and cook, stirring occasionally, until the pieces are tender and lightly browned, about 8-10 minutes.
4. Sauté Onion:
Add another 1 tsp of olive oil to the skillet. Stir in the chopped onion and cook until the onions are translucent, about 4-5 minutes.
5. Add Kale:
Add the chopped kale to the skillet and cook until it is wilted, about 3-4 minutes.
6. Combine Ingredients:
Distribute the sweet potato, onion, and kale mixture evenly in the skillet. Reduce the heat to low.
7. Pour Egg Mixture:
Pour the egg mixture evenly over the vegetables in the skillet. Let it cook undisturbed for a few minutes until the edges start to set, about 2-3 minutes.
8. Bake the Frittata:
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven. Bake until the frittata is set in the center and lightly golden on top, about 12-15 minutes.
9. Cool and Serve:
Remove the skillet from the oven and let the frittata cool for a few minutes. Slice it into wedges and serve warm.

Tips:

- Ensure the sweet potatoes are evenly cut for consistent cooking.

- If you prefer a richer flavor, you can use whole eggs instead of just whites for some of the eggs.

- Pre-cook the sweet potatoes slightly to reduce overall cooking time and ensure tenderness.

This Kale, Sweet Potato, and Onion Frittata is an excellent choice for a hearty and healthy meal. It's easy to make, full of nutrients, and versatile enough to be enjoyed at any time of the day. Serve it warm and enjoy the delightful combination of flavors.
