Ingredients

  • 2 medium leeks
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 8 large eggs
  • 0.5 cup coconut milk
  • 2 cups spinach
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Clean the leeks thoroughly by slicing them in half lengthwise and rinsing under running water to remove any dirt or sand. Slice them thinly.

Step 3

Heat the olive oil in a large ovenproof skillet over medium heat.

Step 4

Add the sliced leeks to the skillet and sauté for about 5 minutes until they become soft and fragrant.

Step 5

Add the spinach to the skillet and cook for another 2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the spinach has wilted.

Step 6

Slice the cherry tomatoes in half and mince the garlic.

Step 7

In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, coconut milk, minced garlic, sea salt, and ground black pepper.

Step 8

Pour the egg mixture over the sautéed leeks and spinach in the skillet.

Step 9

Scatter the halved cherry tomatoes evenly over the top of the frittata.

Step 10

Cook on the stovetop over medium heat for about 4 minutes, until the edges of the frittata start to set.

Step 11

Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 15–20 minutes, or until the center of the frittata is set and no longer jiggles.

Step 12

Remove the frittata from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes.

Step 13

Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before slicing and serving.

Step 14

Enjoy your Paleo Leek Frittata warm or at room temperature.
