Make
- Heat oven to 425F / 218C.
- Place sweet potatoes into a microwave-safe pan or bowl. Cover with wet paper towel and microwave on high until tender, 3 to 5 minutes.
- Heat 9” to 10” (22.5 to 25cm) skillet over medium heat (skillet size is based on 4 servings - you may need a smaller or larger skillet if you're customizing). Add cooking oil and then onions to heated oil. Saute until softened, ~3 minutes. Add sweet potatoes, smoked paprika and salsa and stir to combine. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
- Pour the egg mixture over the veggies. Stir until all ingredients are evenly distributed. Transfer to the oven and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until a knife comes out clean.
- While frittata is baking, toss tomatoes and avocados with shallots and vinegar. Season with some salt and pepper
- Serve frittata warm out of the oven with extra salsa and chives on top. Enjoy Marcona almonds and salad on the side.

This was a soggy sandwich with refried beans and salsa. Yes I toasted the buns. The salad was yummy but don’t forget the salt. Mixed reviews from family. Daughter who doesn’t like eggs loved it. I love eggs and beans but not a fan. So there you have it. I served taco chips with it too.
0 HelpfulTwo of my favorite foods are eggs and refried beans. Never thought of putting them together. Loved the avocado and tomato salad also. The only thing I did different with this meal - I didn't assemble the eggs, bread and beans into a sandwich. I put the items on the plate and let the individual decide if they wanted a sandwich.
0 HelpfulAdded a lot of spice and salsa. Very good! Just had tomato and shallots and sliced almonds in a white balsamic dressing for the salad but it was still tasty.
0 HelpfulMade the paleo version for dinner, it was good but pretty basic. I don't follow a paleo diet so the leftovers were stuffed into some tortillas and frozen for breakfast burritos on the go. I enjoyed the frittata more stuffed in a burrito with cheese added. Paleo just isn't for me when it comes to eggs, I like mine with cheese.
