Steps:
- Preheat the broiler to high.
- Heat a 9-inch cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Add the oil to the pan and warm. Add the sweet potato, onion and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring often, until the onions and potatoes are beginning to brown and the potatoes are cooked through, about 8 minutes. Add the kale and season with 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring often, until the kale is wilted and tender, about 3 minutes.
- Season the eggs with the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt and stir in 1 cup of the mozzarella. Pour the egg mixture over the potato mixture. Using a rubber spatula, gently stir the mixture, making sure all the potatoes are coated in the egg and the ingredients are evenly distributed. Cook on the stove for about 3 minutes to set the bottom. Sprinkle with the remaining 1/4 cup mozzarella. Place the pan under the broiler and broil until golden brown and set, about 3 minutes. Allow to cool for 5 minutes in the pan. Run a thin knife along the edges and cut into 16 squares. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C).
- In a large bowl, beat the egg whites with an electric hand mixer until soft peaks form.
- Add the egg yolks and gently fold with a rubber spatula until incorporated. Refrigerate while you cook the vegetables.
- In a large, nonstick, oven-safe skillet, combine the sweet potato and water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the water has evaporated and the sweet potato is soft on the outside, about 8 minutes.
- Add the onion, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Increase the heat to medium and cook, stirring often, until the onion starts to soften, about 1 minute.
- Add the chopped kale and cook, stirring often, until the kale is wilted and dark green, about 2 minutes more.
- Spread the vegetables evenly over the bottom of the skillet, then pour the egg mixture on top and spread in an even layer.
- Transfer the pan to the oven and bake until the frittata is puffed, cooked through, and very lightly browned on top, 5-6 minutes.
- Let the frittata cool in the skillet for 5 minutes, then flip it onto a cutting board and cut in half.
- Cut the frittata into wedges, then serve with orange slices. Let any leftovers cool completely, then store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
- Enjoy!

Tips:
- Choose the right sweet potatoes. Look for firm, unblemished sweet potatoes that are about the same size. This will help them cook evenly.
- Don't overcrowd the pan. When cooking the sweet potatoes, make sure to leave enough space between them so that they can cook evenly. Otherwise, they will steam rather than roast.
- Use a sharp knife to cut the kale. This will help to prevent the kale from tearing.
- Don't overcook the kale. Kale only needs to be cooked for a few minutes until it is wilted. Otherwise, it will become tough and bitter.
- Use a non-stick skillet. This will help to prevent the frittata from sticking to the pan.
- Cook the frittata over medium heat. This will help to prevent the bottom from burning while the top cooks through.
- Cover the frittata while it is cooking. This will help to trap the heat and cook the frittata evenly.
- Let the frittata cool for a few minutes before slicing it. This will help to prevent it from falling apart.
Conclusion:
This sweet potato and kale frittata is a delicious and healthy breakfast or brunch option. It is packed with nutrients and can be easily customized to your liking. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy meal, give this frittata a try.
