Ingredients
  • 2 tbsp Olive Oil
  • 1 medium Sweet Potato
  • 1/4 null Red Onion
  • 4 cups Kale
  • 8 null Eggs
  • 1/4 cup Coconut Milk (full-fat)
  • 1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
  • 1/2 tsp Salt
  • 1/4 tsp Black Pepper

Prepare the Ingredients

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Peel and dice the sweet potato into small cubes. Dice the red onion. Wash and chop the kale, removing the tough stems.

Sauté the Sweet Potato and Onion

Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Add the sweet potato and red onion and cook until softened, about 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Add the Kale

Add the kale to the skillet and cook until wilted, about 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil if needed.

Prepare the Egg Mixture

In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, coconut milk, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.

Assemble and Bake the Frittata

Pour the egg mixture over the sweet potato and kale in the skillet. Stir gently to ensure everything is evenly distributed. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the frittata is set and the top is lightly golden brown.

Cool and Serve

Let the frittata cool slightly before slicing and serving. Enjoy hot or cold!
