Easy Vegetable Egg Bake

A good way to get protein and veggies into your breakfasts. Dress it up with salsa and sour cream or a warm cheese sauce.  Change out the veggies – you know all the variations like broccoli, tomatoes, mushrooms, diced chilies, whatever.  For a less firm casserole add a cup of milk or sour cream to the mixture.  This reheats nicely.

Ingredients: 

  • 12 eggs 
  • 1 tsp garlic 
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper 
  • 1/4 tsp salt 
  • 1 1/2 C fresh baby spinach, chopped (or 10 oz frozen)
  • 1/2 of an orange or red bell pepper, chopped 
  • 1/4 C red onion, chopped 
  • 1 C shredded jack/mozzarella cheese, divided 
  • 1/2 C shredded cheddar cheese

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 350°.
  2. Lightly spray a 9 x 13 inch baking dish with non-stick cooking spray.
  3. Whisk together eggs, garlic, salt, and pepper in a large bowl.
  4. Mix in spinach, bell pepper, onion, and ¾ C jack cheese.
  5. Pour mixture into prepared baking dish.
  6. Bake for 20 minutes.
  7. Carefully remove from oven and sprinkle with remaining jack/mozzarella and cheddar cheeses.
  8. Bake for an additional 20 minutes. 

Serves:  8-12
