Ingredients
- 2 cups / 135 gm fresh kale
- 1 onion, sliced
- 2 tsp. / 10 ml olive oil
- 6 omega-3 or grass-fed eggs
- 4 omega-3 or grass-fed egg whites
- 1/4 tsp. / 1 1/4 gm salt

Preparation
Step 1
Directions
Preheat your oven to 350°F / 175°C on the broiler setting.
In an ovenproof non-stick skillet, add the oil followed by the kale and onions, and stir over medium heat for about 5 minutes, until onion skin becomes translucent. Turn off the heat and set aside.
In a bowl, combine and whisk the eggs with the egg whites, salt, and pepper. Add the sweet potatoes to the kale mixture in the skillet, and pour the egg mixture over all of the vegetables. Return to low heat. Cook for about 3 minutes. Lift the edges to allow the uncooked portion to seep through and cook evenly. Sprinkle the crumbled goat cheese on top. Place the skillet in the broiler and cook for 2 minutes. Cut into wedges to serve.
Frittata is an Italian omelette, and like a regular omelette, you can make it with your choice of ingredients. This simple sweet potato-kale-goat cheese combination makes an elegant square meal.
For the quick-and-easy vegan version, you can use an egg substitute such as Ener-G, in an amount equivalent to 8 eggs according to package directions.
Another option is to mix 1-1/2 cups chickpea/garbanzo flour with 1-1/2 cups water as a substitute.
