I love breakfast casseroles I make them all the time for breakfasts. They are generally low carb and high protein. This one turned out especially well. For this I paired it with some tortilla chips and guacamole for a kind of breakfast casserole nachos. This would be great with just the guacamole even.
The ingredients:
1 lb. sausage cooked and drained
sliced shallot
1 C crumbled bacon
sliced sweet mini peppers
sliced jalapeno peppers
1 can Rotel
black lime
crushed red pepper
12 eggs
dash of milk
1TBSP black lime
1 TBSP smoked paprika
1 tsp black pepper
1 tsp salt
1 TBSP baking powder
4 oz. shredded cheddar cheese
The recipe:
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
Cook sausage and shallot in skillet. Drain and place in greased casserole dish.
Add bacon, peppers, and Rotel to skillet cook until cooked through adding some black lime and crushed red pepper.
Top the sausage with the bacon and veggie mixture spreading out to make sure evenly covered.
Scramble eggs with milk, black lime, paprika, salt, pepper, and baking powder. (The baking powder keeps your eggs from falling when cooling).
Shred cheddar cheese and add to the scrambled eggs. Pour over the casserole mixture. Spread cheese out evenly.
Bake for 30-40 minutes until eggs are set then serve.
Garnish with cilantro, salsa, sour cream, guacamole, tortillas, or tortilla chips.
For my dinner, I placed a pieced cut up on the plate with some tortilla chips and topped with guacamole. I then added some silk chili on top.
You can make this healthier by using turkey bacon and sausage and omitting the tortilla chips.
This can easily be made meatless by switching the meats out for black beans.
