Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 pound breakfast sausage, crumbled
- 6 large eggs
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup diced bell peppers (red, green, or yellow)
- 1 cup chopped spinach
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with olive oil.
- In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the crumbled breakfast sausage until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess fat.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper until well combined.
- Add the cooked sausage, diced bell peppers, chopped spinach, and 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese to the egg mixture. Stir until everything is evenly mixed.
- Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly. Top with the remaining 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the casserole is set in the middle and the top is golden brown.
- Allow the casserole to cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving.
Notes
- You can substitute the breakfast sausage with diced ham or cooked bacon for a different flavor.
- For added veggies, consider mixing in mushrooms or zucchini.
- If you prefer a spicier dish, add diced jalapeños or a sprinkle of red pepper flakes.
