Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat oven to 325°F (165°C). (Prep time: 5 minutes)

02

Step

Heat olive oil in a 10-inch oven-safe skillet over medium heat. Add broccoli and onion; cook, stirring occasionally, until broccoli is tender and onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Add garlic; cook for 30 seconds until fragrant. Stir in sweet potato and spinach; cook until spinach wilts, about 1 minute. Stir in bacon. (Cook time: ~7 minutes)

03

Step

In a separate bowl, whisk together eggs, half-and-half, chopped sage, salt, and pepper. Pour egg mixture evenly over the vegetables and bacon in the skillet. Gently stir to ensure even distribution. (Prep time: 3 minutes)

04

Step

Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake until the eggs are completely set, approximately 25 minutes. The center should be firm to the touch. (Bake time: ~25 minutes)

05

Step

Remove from oven and let stand for 5 minutes before slicing and serving. Garnish with fresh sage leaves for an aromatic finishing touch. (Rest time: 5 minutes)

For extra flavor, consider using smoked bacon.
If you don't have fresh sage, 1 teaspoon of dried sage can be substituted.
Feel free to add other vegetables, such as bell peppers or mushrooms.
Ensure your skillet is truly oven-safe before placing it in the oven.
A cast iron skillet works best for even cooking and a slightly crispy crust.
