Directions

Prep 30 minCook 55 min
  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 350°F.

  2. 2

    Spray a 9-inch pie plate with cooking spray. Arrange sweet potato slices in overlapping concentric circles on the bottom and up the sides of the pie plate. Cut slices in half to fit around the sides, ensuring the round side faces up.

    Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the oil and onion; sauté for 3 minutes. Add the spinach and sauté for another 3 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool.

  5. 5

    In a medium bowl, combine the milk, salt, pepper, crushed red pepper flakes, eggs, and egg whites. Whisk together until well mixed.

  6. 6

    Spread the spinach mixture over the sweet potato crust. Pour the egg mixture over the spinach and sprinkle with feta cheese.

  7. 7

    Bake at 375°F for 35 minutes, or until the egg mixture is set. Let stand for 5 minutes before cutting into 8 wedges.
