Ingredients
SPICE MIXTURE:
- 4 teaspoons paprika
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 2 teaspoons onion powder
- 1 1/2 teaspoons chili powder
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 2 teaspoons sea salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 1/2 tablespoons coconut or light brown sugar
FRITTATA:
- 6 eggs
- 1/4 cup full fat coconut milk
- 1/2 sweet yellow onion chopped to 1/2 inch pieces
- 1 small yellow bell pepper chopped to 1/2 inch pieces
- 1 cup bell pepper diced into 1/4" pieces (approximately 1 small pepper)
- 1 lb ground beef
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350. Mix spices together and set aside *feel free to sub store bought spice mix, just look for something low-sodium and additive-free. In a bowl, whisk together eggs and coconut milk. Set aside.
- Heat a cast iron skillet to medium heat and add olive oil. When oil is shimmering lightly, add onion and bell peppers. Allow to sauté, stirring infrequently, for 3-4 minutes or until softened and onions are fragrant and translucent.
- Remove veggies from skillet (I put them on a little plate that I keep next to me). Add ground beef and turn to medium-high heat. Allow beef to brown around the edges, stirring infrequently for approximately 5 minutes. When beef is almost completely cooked through, add spice mixture. It will seem like a lot, but you want it all! Stir to incorporate spice mixture evenly throughout.
- Add egg/coconut milk mixture and cooked onions/bell peppers, and mix carefully to combine all ingredients evenly.
- Place skillet in oven and bake for 25 minutes or until eggs are solid to touch and the edges are golden brown. Allow to cool 15 minutes before slicing.
