A single large slice of a vegetable quiche sits centered on a white plate, placed on a white marbled surface. The quiche has three visible layers: the bottom is a thin crust, light brown in color. The middle filling layer is creamy white with chunks of orange sweet potato and bright green leafy spinach mixed in, showing a soft, fluffy texture. The top layer is a golden-yellow, slightly browned custard with browned sweet potato cubes scattered across, some slightly charred on top.

Ingredients

2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and diced
2 tbsp olive oil

1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper

1 bunch kale, stems removed and chopped
6 large eggs

1/4 cup milk
1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
1/2 tsp garlic powder

1/2 tsp paprika

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Step 2: Toss the diced sweet potatoes with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread them out on a baking sheet and roast for about 20 minutes, or until tender.

Step 3: While the sweet potatoes roast, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped kale and sauté for 3-4 minutes until wilted.
Step 4: In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, garlic powder, and paprika until well combined.
Step 5: Combine the roasted sweet potatoes and sautéed kale in an oven-safe skillet. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the vegetables.

Step 6: Sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese on top.
Step 7: Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the eggs are fully set and the frittata is cooked through.
Step 8: Allow the frittata to cool for about 5 minutes before slicing and serving.

Tips & Variations

For extra flavor, add chopped fresh herbs like parsley or thyme to the egg mixture before baking.
Swap kale for spinach or Swiss chard if preferred, adjusting the sauté time as needed.
To make it vegetarian-friendly but dairy-free, replace feta with a sprinkle of nutritional yeast or omit it altogether.

Use a cast-iron or oven-safe non-stick skillet for even cooking and easy cleanup.

Storage

Store leftover frittata in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat individual slices in the microwave for about 30-60 seconds or warm in a low oven until heated through. This dish can also be frozen; wrap portions tightly and freeze for up to 1 month. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator before reheating.

The frittata has three visible layers: a bottom layer of soft, white, slightly fluffy egg base, filled with chunks of bright orange sweet potatoes and dark green spinach leaves; the middle layer is a mix of creamy white cheese and the vegetables, creating a speckled texture; the top layer is golden brown with a slightly crispy and bubbly surface, showing pockets of browned cheese and bits of spinach. The edges appear firm but tender, with the vegetables adding a vibrant contrast. The background is softly blurred, suggesting a warm kitchen setting. photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

FAQs

Can I prepare this frittata ahead of time?

Yes, you can prepare the roasted sweet potatoes and sauté the kale in advance, then assemble and bake the frittata when ready. The fully cooked frittata also reheats well the next day.

Can I use other cheeses instead of feta?

Absolutely! Goat cheese, ricotta, or shredded mozzarella are great alternatives that pair well with the sweet potatoes and kale. Choose a cheese that melts easily for a creamier texture.
