Simple ingredients come together to make this delicious Syn Free Sweet Potato and Spinach Frittata
Lightly golden pieces of sweet potato, with speedy spinach and eggs, cheese and seasoning, you can't get much simpler than that.
This Sweet Potato and Spinach Frittata makes a great breakfast because it has a good source of protein and healthy carbs from the sweet potato, so it will keep you high satiated until your next meal.
You could omit the cheese from this if you like to save both your healthy extra's, but personally I love the cheese in this, but then I LOVE cheese full stop.
This sweet potato and spinach frittata is also great for lunch with a big salad and is yummy served hot or cold.
It is gluten free, and if you omit the cheese dairy free and paleo/whole30 friendly.
If you want to make this with more speed foods, then replace the sweet potato with butternut squash, that will also make this sweet potato and spinach frittata great for a Original or SP day.

This is such a great idea! I never would have thought to put sweet potatoes in eggs, but I'm loving it.
Yum, this sounds delicious! The combination of sweet potatoes and spinach sounds perfect!
Sounds amazing! I was wondering if I made this on a Sunday would it stay fresh for my lunch Monday and Tuesday in work? Has anyone tried to keep it? x
Hi Rebecca, yes it will be fine, it should keep about 3 days in the fridge
Just wanted to say weve been using this recipe for a couple of years now. Freezes well too!
