  • 2 cups Fresh Spinach Brightens the dish with color and nutrients.
  • 8 ounces Mushrooms Adds a rich umami flavor.
  • 1 cup Bell Peppers Bring sweetness and crunch.
  • 1 medium Onion Sautéed to create a deeper, richer flavor base.

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray or butter.
  2. In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the sausage until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Drain excess fat and set aside.
  3. In the same skillet, add olive oil or butter and sauté onions and bell peppers for 3-4 minutes. Then, add mushrooms and spinach, cooking for an additional 2-3 minutes.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, salt, and pepper. Incorporate half of the cheddar cheese.
  5. Gently fold the cooked sausage and sautéed vegetables into the egg mixture.
  6. Pour the combined mixture into the greased baking dish and top with the remaining cheddar cheese.
  7. Bake for 35-40 minutes or until the center is set and a knife comes out clean.
  8. Let the egg bake rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving.
