Ingredients for Sweet Potato and Spinach Frittata

Just simple easy ingredients for this delicious frittata:

• Cubed Peeled Sweet Potato
• Onion
• Seasonings: Sweet Paprika, Garlic Powder, Red Pepper flakes, Salt and Black Pepper
• Spinach
• Eggs
• Cheddar

I like to get everything all prepped before I start a recipe so it's all ready to go.

Cooking a Frittata

To cook this frittata I like to use a small 8 inch cast iron pan. The reason for this is you can start it on the stove for the base ingredients and then transfer it to the oven without any need for using another pan or dish. I am all for less cleaning up afterwards.

I like this Lodge 8 inch cast iron skillet which you can get on Amazon - but of course any oven friendly pan will do or if you don't have an oven friendly pan, start it in a pan and transfer to an oven dish.

Dairy Free Frittata

You could omit the cheese from this if you want to reduce the calories a bit more and make it dairy free or use a dairy free cheese instead or even some nutritional yeast for that cheesy flavour.

Sweet Potato Substitute

If you want to make this with more vegetables, then replace the sweet potato with butternut squash, which will also reduce the calories slightly too, it's a great substitute for sweet potato and has a similar flavour.

Sides for Sweet Potato and Spinach Frittata

If I am enjoying a slice of this for breakfast I usually will have a square of it just as it is or with a small bowl of fresh berries on the side with my cup of coffee.

For lunch if I am having a slice I will go for a mixed salad with some baby leaves and other salad ingredients. Some of the Homemade Light Ranch Yoghurt Dressing on the side is a must also.
