Ingredients:
Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
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.
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.
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.
Add the chopped kale to the skillet and cook until it is wilted, about 3-4 minutes.
Distribute the sweet potato, onion, and kale mixture evenly in the skillet. Reduce the heat to low.
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.
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.
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.
