Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 pieces large eggs
- 0.5 cup whole milk
- 0.5 pound ground breakfast sausage
- 1 piece red bell pepper, diced
- 1 piece yellow onion, diced
- 2 cups spinach, chopped
- 1.5 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with non-stick cooking spray or butter.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the breakfast sausage and cook until browned and fully cooked, about 6-8 minutes. Remove the sausage from the pan and set aside.
Using the same skillet, add the diced onion and red bell pepper. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened. Add the chopped spinach and cook for another 1-2 minutes until wilted. Remove from heat and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder until well combined.
Add the cooked sausage, sautéed vegetables, and 1 cup of the shredded cheddar cheese to the egg mixture. Stir gently to combine.
Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly. Sprinkle the remaining 0.5 cups of shredded cheddar cheese over the top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the casserole is set in the center and the top is slightly golden.
Remove the casserole from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes before slicing into squares and serving.
Enjoy your Renewal Egg Casserole warm, or store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
