FAQs
Can I use sweet potatoes instead of regular ones?
Absolutely. Sweet potatoes add a hint of natural sweetness and are just as delicious.
Can I make this dairy-free?
Yes — omit the milk and replace the feta with a dairy-free cheese or simply skip it.
Can I prep this in advance?
You can parboil or roast the potatoes in advance. Scramble the eggs fresh for best texture.
What can I add for more flavor?
Try smoked paprika, chopped spinach, or sun-dried tomatoes for an extra kick.
Is this freezer-friendly?
Not ideal, as scrambled eggs and feta don’t freeze well. Best served fresh.
