Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • 3 cups diced sweet potato (14 ounces/2 small-medium potatoes)
  • 3 cups roughly chopped asparagus (315 grams)
  • 2 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 12 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup whole milk
  • 3 ounces goat cheese (about 3/4 cup crumbled)
  • salt and pepper, to taste
  • for topping – avocado, fresh parsley, sliced green onions, hot sauce…

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  2. In a large enameled cast iron or oven-safe skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the sweet potatoes, season with salt and pepper, and cook for 6-8 minutes without stirring. Stir and cook for another 6-8 minutes, occasionally stirring.
  3. Add the remaining olive oil along with asparagus, garlic powder, cumin, onion powder, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper. Sauté for about 8-10 minutes until the asparagus is al dente.
  4. While the asparagus cooks, whisk together the eggs, milk, and some salt and pepper in a large bowl. Mix in roughly 2/3 of the goat cheese.
  5. Pour the egg mixture over the sautéed vegetables, ensuring even distribution. Allow to cook for 3-4 minutes until the bottom begins to set. Sprinkle the remaining goat cheese on top.
  6. Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes until the eggs are fully set.
  7. Once done, slice into 6 pieces and serve with your preferred toppings.

Notes

Feel free to customize toppings based on your preference.
For a spicier kick, consider adding more red pepper flakes to the egg mixture.
Any leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator and reheated for breakfast.
