Ingredients
- 1 lb ground breakfast sausage sugar-free, keto-friendly
- 1 tbsp olive oil or avocado oil
- 0.5 cup chopped onion optional
- 1 cup baby spinach packed, optional
- 10 large eggs
- 0.5 cup heavy cream or unsweetened almond milk
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 0.5 tsp salt
- 0.25 tsp black pepper
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese or mozzarella
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the ground breakfast sausage and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until it's browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess grease. If using chopped onion, add it to the skillet with the sausage for the last 3-4 minutes of cooking until softened.
- If using baby spinach, add it to the skillet with the cooked sausage and onions. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until the spinach wilts. Evenly spread this sausage and vegetable mixture into a 9x13 inch oven-safe baking dish.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the large eggs, heavy cream (or unsweetened almond milk), garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until all ingredients are well combined and frothy.
- Pour the whisked egg mixture evenly over the sausage and vegetables in the baking dish. Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top of the egg mixture.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the eggs are completely set in the center and the top is lightly golden brown. Let the bake stand for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.
Notes
This bake is excellent for meal prepping! Store individual portions in airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Reheat gently in the microwave or oven. For a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes with the seasonings.
