SUPER QUICK SWEET POTATO AND BACON FRITTATA



Super Quick Sweet Potato and Bacon Frittata image

Smart shortcuts deliver a frittata that's perfect for a busy weeknight or headlining a weekend brunch menu. Microwaving the sweet potatoes helps them cook faster; Canadian bacon adds flavor with half the saturated fat of regular bacon.

Provided by Karen Rankin

Time 20m

Yield Serves 4 (serving size: 2 wedges)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 cups chopped peeled sweet potato
Cooking spray
5 Canadian bacon slices (about 3 oz.), chopped
2 tablespoons canola oil, divided
1 cup thinly sliced shallots
6 large eggs
1 ounce Gruyère cheese, shredded (about 1/4 cup)
1 tablespoon chopped fresh sage
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1 ounce goat cheese, crumbled (about 1/4 cup)
2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives

Steps:

  • Preheat broiler to high with oven rack in top position. Place sweet potato in a microwavable bowl; add water to a depth of 1/2 inch. Cover with a plate and microwave until slightly tender, 5 to 6 minutes. Drain sweet potato, and transfer to a plate. Pat sweet potato dry, and lightly coat with cooking spray.
  • Heat a 9-inch cast-iron skillet over medium-high. Add Canadian bacon and 1 tablespoon oil; cook, stirring often, until bacon is lightly browned, 4 to 5 minutes. Drain bacon on paper towels, reserving drippings in skillet. Add shallots and sweet potato to skillet; cook, stirring often, until lightly browned, about 5 minutes.
  • Whisk together eggs, Gruyère, sage, pepper, and salt in a bowl. Add remaining 1 tablespoon oil to sweet potato mixture in skillet; pour egg mixture into skillet. Cook over medium, gently pulling eggs in from sides of skillet with a spatula, until eggs are partially set, about 2 minutes. Sprinkle with goat cheese and reserved bacon.
  • Transfer skillet to oven; broil until eggs are completely set and toppings are golden, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from oven; sprinkle with chives.

SWEET POTATO, KALE AND BACON FRITTATA



Sweet Potato, Kale and Bacon Frittata image

Provided by Valerie Bertinelli

Categories     main-dish

Time 35m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

5 slices thick-cut bacon, cut into 1/3-inch pieces (about 1 heaping cup)
8 large eggs
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Extra-virgin olive oil, if needed
1 small sweet potato, cut into 1/3-inch cubes (about 1 1/2 cups)
3 cups roughly chopped curly kale
1 cup grated white Cheddar

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Add the bacon to a 10-inch non-stick skillet and cook over medium-high heat, stirring regularly, until the bacon is crispy, about 10 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, remove the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate.
  • In a large bowl, add the eggs, 1/4 cup of water and 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Set aside.
  • Drain off all but 2 tablespoons of the bacon fat from the skillet. (If the bacon has not rendered enough fat, add 2 tablespoons of olive oil instead.) Return the skillet to medium-high and add the sweet potato, 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper and cook, stirring, until the potato is slightly browned and fork tender, 7 to 10 minutes. Add in the kale and a small pinch each of salt and pepper and cook, stirring, until wilted, about 4 minutes. Add the bacon back to the skillet. Turn the heat down to medium-low and add the egg mixture and half of the Cheddar. Using a rubber spatula, start lightly scrambling the eggs. When the edges begin to set, top with the remaining Cheddar and transfer the skillet to the oven. Bake until the egg is set and lightly puffed up, 5 to 7 minutes
  • Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes. Slice into wedges and serve.

SWEET POTATO ZUCCHINI FRITTATA



Sweet Potato Zucchini Frittata image

I like frittatas. My family like frittatas. But for different reasons. I like frittatas because they are the breakfast version of stone soup. And I like them because I've never tried one that I didn't like. Pretty much any veggie and/or veggie combination works in a frittata, and this one proves that point. Spinach, mushrooms, tomatoes, onions, potatoes...all great additions to a frittata. But zucchini and sweet potato together in a frittata...you're just gonna have to trust me. My family loves frittatas because they taste good. And they have eggs in them (a fave ingredient among the little people). They also love the "brinner" concept too! Another reason I love frittatas, they are so easy to make! Layer thinly sliced zucchini, layer of cooked & cubed sweet potato, layer of thinly sliced zucchini. Pour milk-egg mixture on top. Bake. Serve with a side of fresh fruit and a glass of cold milk!

Time 50m

Yield 1 frittata, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 medium zucchini (about 1 1/4 pounds total)
2 medium sweet potatoes, cooked and cubed
8 eggs (I would use 6 eggs if using a pie plate)
1/2 cup milk
1 tablespoon minced onion
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray a quiche dish or 9" glass pie plate with non-stick cooking spray.
  • In a quiche dish or 9" glass pie plate, add a layer of zucchini slices, then layer of cooked sweet potato cubes (I cooked mine in the microwave to save time), then another layer of zucchini slices. Season with a little salt and pepper.
  • In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, minced onion, mince garlic and salt and pepper. Pour over the veggies in the dish.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the eggs in the middle have cooked through.
  • Serve Sweet Potato Zucchini Frittata with Fresh Fruit and a glass of milk -- a great weeknight "brinner.".

SWEET POTATO, LEEK AND FETTA FRITTATA



Sweet Potato, Leek and Fetta Frittata image

A simple and light dinner or lunch option, very forgiving and you can add pretty much anything. Just choose the herbs you have or like best. Great hot or cold with salad, as with a lot of things it often tastes better the next day. You could also use 8 eggs but I tend to lighten it up by taking yolks out of a couple and using a low fat fetta.

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 30m

Yield 4 Large Slices, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

6 large eggs

2 tablespoons red Spanish onions (Chopped)
1 1/2 cups sliced leeks (White Part)
1 cup sweet potato (Sliced)
1/4 medium bell pepper (Red or Green)
1/2 cup water
90 g reduced fat greek feta
salt and pepper (To Taste)
1 teaspoon mixed herbs or 1 teaspoon oregano

Steps:

  • Preheat fan forced oven to 180c (356f).
  • Whisk eggs with water and herbs; season with pepper and salt; set aside.
  • Layer sweet potato, red onion and leeks in a pyrex dish or similar (I find that a small square casserole dish works best) and either microwave or heat in oven until sweet potato is soft.

  • Bake until set (should be around 10-15 mins).
