PREP TIME

COOK TIME

10 min

Ingredients

2 tablespoons organic extra-virgin olive oil

6 ounces/170 g yellow-fleshed sweet potatoes, cut into 1⁄2-inch/1.25 cm dice

2 medium-size leeks, white and light green parts only, quartered lengthwise and cut into 1⁄2-inch/1.25 cm slices

12 large organic, pasture-raised, or antibiotic-free eggs

1⁄2 cup/120 mL grass-fed organic milk or unsweetened nut milk

4 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme

11⁄2 teaspoons fine sea salt

1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

1 cup/125 g grated Parmesan cheese, divided

2 cups/30 g loosely packed spinach leaves

Directions

  1. In a medium, ovenproof skillet over medium heat, heat the oil. Add the potatoes and cook, stir- ring occasionally, for 2 minutes. Add the leeks and cook, stirring occasionally, until all the vegetables are tender, about 6 minutes.

  2. Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, whisk the eggs. Whisk in the milk, thyme, salt, pepper, and 3⁄4 cup/90 g of the cheese.

  3. Add the egg mixture to the skillet, stirring gently to evenly distribute the vegetables. Lower the heat to medium-low and cook without stirring until the eggs are set around the edges, about 10 minutes.

  4. Meanwhile, preheat a broiler and arrange a rack about 8 inches from the heating element.

  5. Scatter the spinach leaves on top of the frittata, pressing them down to slightly submerge, and sprinkle on remaining 1⁄4 cup/35 g of cheese. Place the skillet under the broiler and broil until the eggs are set and the top of the frittata is golden brown, about 5 minutes.

  6. Transfer the frittata skillet to a wire rack (careful, the handle and pan will be hot) and let cool for 10 minutes.

  7. Cut the frittata into eight to ten wedges. Serve warm or room temperature.
