PREPARATION

• 1

  Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a small oven-safe baking dish with the olive oil.

• 2

  Peel the sweet potato and grate it using the large holes of a box grater, or finely dice it into 1/4-inch cubes for more texture.

• 3

  In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the cottage cheese, egg whites, whole egg, nutritional yeast, sea salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.

• 4

  Roughly chop the baby spinach and fold it into the cottage cheese mixture along with the prepared sweet potato.

• 5

  Transfer the mixture into the greased baking dish and spread it into an even layer using a spatula.

• 6

  Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the center is firm to the touch and the top has developed a light golden crust.

• 7

  Remove from the oven and allow the bake to rest for at least 5 minutes to set before slicing into portions.
