Ingredients
- 2 large sweet potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 medium onion, finely sliced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 3 cups fresh spinach leaves
- 3 large eggs
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
- 3/4 cup crumbled feta cheese
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a baking dish.
- In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add sliced onion and cook for 4 minutes until softened.
- Stir in garlic and cook for another minute. Add spinach and sauté until wilted, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat.
- In a bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, salt, pepper, paprika, and thyme.
- Layer half of the sweet potato slices in the bottom of the baking dish.
- Top with half of the spinach mixture and sprinkle with some feta.
- Repeat the layers with remaining ingredients, finishing with a sprinkle of feta on top.
- Pour the egg mixture evenly over the layered ingredients.
- Cover the dish with foil and bake for 30 minutes. Remove foil and bake for another 10–15 minutes until golden and set.
- Let rest for 5 minutes before slicing and serving warm.
Notes
- Add mushrooms or sun-dried tomatoes for more flavor.
- Substitute goat cheese or ricotta for feta if desired.
- Stir in cooked quinoa or shredded chicken for added protein.
- Use frozen spinach if fresh is unavailable—just thaw and squeeze dry.
- Freezes well—wrap individual portions for easy reheating.
