Tips For Making The Best Sausage and Egg Whole30 Breakfast Casserole
Use fresh veggies if possible
I’ve found using fresh peppers and onions really enhances the overall flavor of the dish, and gives you a better texture for your casserole.
I also prefer to use fresh spinach, but if you use frozen spinach, make sure you squeeze any excess water out of your spinach to avoid a watery casserole.
Don’t overbake your casserole
I’ve found mine gets done perfectly at 28 minutes, but of course every oven is different.
A simple way to check to see if it’s done is to stick a knife in the center of the breakfast casserole and if it comes out clean, it’s done.
Prep your veggies and sausage ahead
Usually if I have extra time in my schedule, I’ll go ahead and chop up my veggies and refrigerate them in an airtight container until I’m ready to cook the breakfast casserole.
I also will sometimes cook my turkey sausage in advance, which helps save time.
Doing one or both of these things in advance can really help save time and effort when you’re reading to make your Whole30 Breakfast Casserole.
Add or switch up ingredients
This Whole30 Breakfast Casserole is a wonderful base recipe that can be variated with different ingredients and flavors to switch it up.
Feel free to add additional veggies such as mushrooms, tomatoes, broccoli, or sweet potato and/or change up the seasonings, or the meat you use.
If you’re not doing Whole30 you can also of course add yummy cheese.
I will sometimes add in some homemade taco seasoning and salsa to make it tex-mex and it’s delicious!
