Eggs are my all time favorite breakfast but I don’t always have time to prepare them in the morning. I love making an egg casserole (or two!) on the weekends to have prepped for an easy breakfast that I can quickly reheat on weekdays. I often double the recipe and freeze one casserole for a later time. I usually find myself adding extra veggies to the egg mix, topping with extra cheese, and always finishing it off with hot sauce.
Servings: 12
Ingredients:
- Just under 1lb. (400g) pork sausages
- ½ red bell pepper, finely diced
- ½ yellow bell pepper, finely diced
- 3 cloves of garlic, finely minced
- 6 ¾ cups (200g) fresh spinach
- 3 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
- 10 eggs
- ¾ cups (150mL) heavy cream
- 1 ¼ cups (150g) shredded cheddar cheese
- Fresh parsley for decoration
- Olive oil
- Salt, pepper
Instructions:
- Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C).
- Coat the surface of a pan with olive oil and put it over medium-high heat. Add minced garlic and sausages and cook until the sausages brown.
- Add red and yellow bell peppers and cook for a few minutes.
- Blanch fresh spinach in salted water, drain and chop it roughly.
- Add blanched spinach to the mixture with sausages and peppers, add chopped parsley, salt, and pepper.
- Transfer the mixture to a baking dish.
- Beat the eggs with a hand mixer, add heavy cream and mix well. Pour into the baking dish and place in the oven.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, and 5 minutes before the end, remove the baking dish from the oven, sprinkle with cheddar cheese, and return to the oven until the cheese melts.
- Decorate with fresh parsley and serve.
Enjoy!
