Equipment

  • 12 inch cast iron skillet

Ingredients
 

  • 12 eggs
  • 1 tsp sea salt
  • ½ tsp pepper
  • 2-3 tbsp avocado or olive oil

  • 1 cup celery root small dice (½ bulb)
  • 1 cup zucchini small dice (1 medium zucchini)
  • 1 cup asparagus cut into ¾" pieces (about 12 stems)
  • 1 cup kale minced (about 2 leaves)

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350 F

  • Saute onions in heated oil until translucent but not brown, about 3 minutes.
  • Add celery root and cook until soft, stiring occasionally.
  • Add zucchini and cook until soft, continuing to stir so the vegetables cook evenly.

  • In a bowl, whisk the eggs and season with salt and pepper.
  • When the vegetables are soft, gently pour in the eggs.
