Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
Heat a large enameled cast iron, cast iron pan, or oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil and let it heat up. Add diced sweet potatoes, season with salt and pepper, and spread them out evenly in a single layer. Let them cook untouched for 6-8 minutes, then stir and cook for an additional 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Add the remaining olive oil to the pan along with the chopped asparagus, garlic powder, cumin, onion powder, red pepper flakes, and season with salt and pepper. Sauté for 8-10 minutes until the asparagus is al dente.
While the asparagus is cooking, whisk together the eggs and milk in a large bowl, adding salt and pepper. Stir in about 2/3 of the crumbled goat cheese.
Pour the egg mixture into the pan, distributing it evenly. Let it cook for 3-4 minutes until the bottom starts to set. Sprinkle the remaining goat cheese on top.
Transfer the pan to the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes until the eggs are set and firm.
Slice into 6 pieces and enjoy, adding toppings like avocado, fresh parsley, sliced green onions, or hot sauce if desired.

Notes

Feel free to customize the frittata by adding other vegetables like bell peppers or spinach.
Serve warm or at room temperature; leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
