Ingredients

  • 2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced into rounds
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 2 cups fresh spinach (or 1 cup frozen, thawed and drained)
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 small onion, chopped (optional)
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup milk or half-and-half
  • 1/2 cup feta cheese, crumbled
  • Pinch of nutmeg (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9-inch pie dish or quiche pan.
  2. Toss sweet potato slices with 1 tablespoon olive oil, salt, and pepper. Layer in the dish to form a crust.
  3. Bake the sweet potato crust for 15–20 minutes until lightly browned and tender.
  4. Meanwhile, sauté onion (if using) and garlic in 1 tablespoon olive oil until soft. Add spinach and cook until wilted. Let cool slightly.
  5. In a bowl, whisk eggs, milk, salt, pepper, and nutmeg.
  6. Stir in spinach mixture and crumbled feta. Pour into pre-baked crust.
  7. Bake for 30–35 minutes, until center is set and top is golden.
  8. Let cool for 5–10 minutes before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • Add sun-dried tomatoes or roasted red peppers for more flavor and color.
  • Include turkey sausage or diced ham for extra protein.
  • Substitute goat cheese for feta for a creamier texture.
  • Use kale or arugula in place of spinach.
  • Spice it up with red pepper flakes or a dash of hot sauce.
