Having breakfast for dinner is one of my favorite meals on the weekends. I get a break from having to figure out what main coarse and side dishes I’m going to cook and just wing it. Spinach Egg Bake let me get creative in the kitchen and use what I had in the fridge as far as veggies and cheeses are concerned. Packed full of protein and vegetables, this is one hearty breakfast, brunch or dinner!
My son said Spinach Egg Bake was…The best egg “thing” he ever ate. He consumed half the casserole with salsa on the side. And he’ll eat the other half for breakfast in the morning. The ingredients in this delicious egg bake can be switched out to what you have in your refrigerator as far as breakfast meats, vegetables and cheeses go. Just remember to use the same measurements in the recipe when swapping out the veggies and cheese of your choice.. Versatility, don’t we just love it! Let’s gather the ingredients and make Breakfast Egg Bake together.
Spinach Egg Bake Ingredients:
- 1 large onion, diced
- 1/2 cup red bell pepper, diced
- 2 cups baby spinach, packed tight
- 4 slices cooked bacon, crumbled
- 1/2 cup cooked ham, diced
- 12 eggs
- 1/2 Teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 Teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1 1/2 cups grated cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan Cheese
- 1/4 cup butter
The first step in the recipe is to melt 1/4 cup butter in a large saute pan. Add the diced onion and peppers to the pan and saute the ingredients until the onions are soft and translucent.
Add the 2 cups of fresh baby spinach and stir until the spinach is wilted. After the spinach is wilted, remove the pan from the heat. Add the cooked crumbled bacon and diced cooked ham to the spinach, stir to combine the ingredients. Set the mixture aside.
Place the eggs, sour cream, salt and garlic powder in a large bowl. Whisk the ingredients until they are smooth. Stir the spinach mixture and grated cheddar cheese into the eggs.
Pour the mixture into a buttered casserole dish and sprinkle the top with grated Parmesan Cheese. Bake the casserole at 350 degrees for about 40 minutes or until the center of the casserole is set and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Spinach Egg Bake, the perfect breakfast, lunch or DINNER . Homemade goodness from my house to yours, ENJOY!
