This simple sweet potato frittata uses spiralized sweet potatoes for a fun, faster-cooking dish. No spiralizer? No problem — you can still enjoy this egg- and vegetable-packed breakfast with just a few minutes of prep.

Time to have a little fun in the kitchen — bring out your spiralizer (if you have one) or simply chop the sweet potato small. Frittatas are a weekday favorite because they’re flexible, quick, and endlessly adaptable. This version combines spiralized sweet potato, baby arugula, garlic, and Parmesan for a bright, satisfying brunch or light dinner.

Spiralized Sweet Potato Baby Arugula Frittata

Ingredients
- 9 large eggs
- 1/4 c whole milk or cream (fuller fat is best)
- 1 medium sweet potato, peeled
- 2 handfuls baby arugula
- 1–2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1/4 tsp crushed red pepper
- 1/2 c shredded Parmesan
- 1/2 tsp parsley
- Sea salt and black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Trim the sweet potato ends and spiralize according to your machine’s instructions. If you don’t have a spiralizer, dice the sweet potato very small and sauté until softened and slightly browned at the edges.
- In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk or cream, crushed red pepper, Parmesan, salt, and black pepper until combined.
- Heat a cast iron skillet (or oven-safe skillet) over medium heat with a splash of olive oil. Add minced garlic and cook briefly until fragrant.
- Add the sweet potato noodles to the skillet and toss for 3–5 minutes until heated through and beginning to soften.
- Add the baby arugula and toss until it just starts to wilt and incorporates with the sweet potato.
- Pour the egg mixture evenly over the sweet potato and arugula in the skillet.
- Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake 20–25 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the edges begin to brown.
- Allow the frittata to cool 5 minutes before slicing and serving.
Notes
Store leftover frittata sealed in the refrigerator for 3–4 days. For longer storage, freeze in a freezer-safe container for up to 2 months.
