    This Egg Sausage Casserole is a popular breakfast or brunch option, making it perfect for a crowd or for meal prepping. It's loaded with protein and can easily be made ahead of time. The result is a comforting, flavorful casserole with a rich, creamy consistency from the eggs and melted cheese, and a savory kick from the sausage.

    Anyone else out there looking for an easy, protein packed breakfast?  Here is the best part, you cook it in advance!  Better yet, how about having breakfast done for the next few days?  

    This little slice of heaven is one of my favorite dishes for brunches or just to make on Sundays to have for the week.  You can use whatever veggies you like or have in the house.  I used to baby spinach but any vegetable would do.  (I probably have tried them all! 🙂 )

    Ingredients

    12 egg whites or 1 box of egg whites or combination of whole eggs and egg whites, whatever you prefer

    1 package of lean turkey breakfast sausage

    2 cups of baby spinach

    ¼ cup shredded mexican cheese blend or whatever cheese you like

    Instructions

    1. Spray casserole dish with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
    2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
    3. Place baby spinach (or whatever vegetables you like) on the bottom of casserole dish.  Next layer with sliced sausage and sprinkle shredded cheese on top.
    4. Por egg whites on top and bake for 35 minutes until completely cooked ( I do not like wet eggs AT ALL!)

    ENJOY!!  Talk about easy, right?  Makes 6 servings.  Cut into 6 equal servings immediately so you aren't tempted to eat more than the correct portion.

    This Egg Sausage Casserole with Spinach is a HUGE  crowd pleaser for brunch or breakfast any day of the week! www.laurenkellynutrition.comPin

      Hi, do you need to heat the sausage first, or does it go in uncooked?

      The ingredients are all great, but the "having breakfast done for you for the next few days" was the best part 😉
