Dice sweet potatoes and onion.

Heat olive oil in a skillet and check the temperature with a thermometer (aim for 350°F).

Add the onion to the skillet and caramelize it lightly.

Add the diced potatoes to the skillet and cover to cook for a few minutes.

Add the diced sweet potatoes to the skillet after the regular potatoes have had a head start.

Season with salt and pepper to taste.

In a mixing bowl, crack 14 eggs and whisk them together.

Add sun-dried tomatoes to the egg mixture.

Add cheddar cheese to the egg mixture.

If desired, substitute some yolks with egg whites to reduce cholesterol.

Transfer the cooked potato mixture from the skillet to a cold pan.

Pour the egg mixture over the potato mixture in the cold pan.

Place the pan in a preheated oven at 375°F and bake until set (time not specified).
