This recipe appears across the internet with slight variations. This is my version.

SIMPLE LOW-CARB BREAKFAST CASSEROLE

Ingredients

• 1 lb ground sausage
• 1 tbsp fresh garlic, minced
• 2 cups (total) red and green bell peppers, diced
• 1/2 cup yellow onion, diced
• 3 cups spinach, chopped
• 12 medium eggs
• Sea salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste
• 1/2 cup Cheddar or Gouda cheese, grated

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350º. Grease a 9” by 13” baking dish and set aside.
2. Brown sausage in a skillet. Add garlic, peppers, and onions to the sausage and sauté for 2 minutes.
3. Place this mixture into your prepared baking dish and sprinkle chopped spinach on top.
4. In a separate bowl, whisk eggs with salt and pepper. Pour beaten eggs over vegetables in baking dish. Make sure eggs are covering all ingredients.
5. Top with cheese and bake for 45 minutes. A fork should come out clean when eggs are completely cooked.

NOTE: After baking, I like to add a bit of truffle zest to the top.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!
