Ingredients
2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and diced
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 lb turkey sausage (crumbled or links sliced)
10 large eggs
½ cup milk (dairy or unsweetened non-dairy)
1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or mozzarella work well)
½ teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon smoked paprika
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon black pepper
Optional: chopped spinach, diced red onion, or hot sauce for added depth
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
Toss diced sweet potatoes with olive oil, salt, and paprika. Roast on a baking sheet for 20–25 minutes until just tender.
While sweet potatoes roast, cook turkey sausage in a skillet over medium heat until browned.
In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Stir in cheese.
Layer roasted sweet potatoes and cooked sausage into the baking dish. Pour egg mixture over the top.
Bake for 30–35 minutes, or until the center is set. Let cool slightly before slicing.
