This morning Chad is off to save the world - volunteering for the local Search and Rescue. Which means I am home, spending my morning warm, sipping coffee and watching a bit of TV. Oh and did I mention hungry?
I decided to go a little overboard this morning, and make myself an almost gourmet breakfast.
It turned out wonderfully! So, I decided to share the recipe!
Fresh & Tasty Breakfast Casserole
Serves 1-2
* 1 tsp olive oil
* 3 tbls diced bell peppers
* 4 tbls finely diced onion
* 1 clove garlic, smooshed
* 1 cup diced, leftover roasted potatoes
* 1/4 cup spicy sausage (I used a vegetarian chipolte sausage)
* 1/2 bunch chopped fresh spinach
* seasoning: I used cajun, paprika, salt and pepper
* 4 eggs
* 3 tbls milk
* 1/4 cup shredded cheese
Preheat oven to 350.
Crack eggs in a bowl, add milk and mix very well.
Saute bell peppers and onion in olive oil, over medium heat. Cook till translucent and just starting to turn golden. Add garlic and potatoes. Cook for a while and add crumbled sausage. Stir frequently until sauage is cooked through, then add spinach and seasoning. Once wilted, remove from heat.
Coat a small baking dish with non-stick spray. I used a 5-inch round cake pan. Put the veggie/sausage mixture into the pan. Sprinkle on the cheese. Pour egg mixture over top, gently tapping the pan to get the eggs into all the cracks and crevices. Eggs should completely cover the mixture and cheese (but not go over it in excess).
Bake for 30-35 minutes, until eggs are set. Check by stabbing it with a knife - if gooie egg leaks up, put it back in the oven. Top should be golden brown. Let sit for 5 minutes. Cut and ENJOY!
Its delicious and you could put anything you want into it! MMMmmmm.
