• 2 cups chopped kale

• 3 cloves garlic, minced

• ½ medium yellow onion, diced

Preheat oven to 425°F.

Step 2

Spread the cubed sweet potatoes on a lined baking sheet. Drizzle with half the olive oil and roast for 25–30 minutes, or until tender.

Step 3

While the sweet potatoes roast, heat the remaining olive oil in a cast iron skillet over medium heat.

Step 4

Add the onion, kale, and cauliflower rice. Cook for about 5 minutes, until softened.

Step 5

Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 additional minute. Remove the skillet from the heat.

Step 6

In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, ricotta cheese, chia seeds, flaxseed meal, salt, pepper, and thyme.

Step 7

When the sweet potatoes are finished roasting, reduce the oven temperature to 375°F.

Add the roasted sweet potatoes to the skillet, then pour in the egg mixture. Stir gently to combine.

Step 9

Bake for 20–25 minutes, or until the eggs are fully set. Let rest for a few minutes before slicing.

HerEra Tip

Fresh thyme gives this frittata a beautiful earthy flavour, but you can substitute 1 teaspoon dried thyme if that is what you have on hand. For extra richness, add a sprinkle of goat cheese or Parmesan before baking.
