6 Ways to Make Meal Prep Easier

How to Make This Veggie & Sausage Egg Casserole:

Prep:  Spray a 9×13 pan with cooking spray. Layer the chopped Brussel sprouts and kale, and diced chicken sausage in the pan. 

Mix: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, goat cheese, garlic, salt and pepper. Pour on top of the veggies and chicken sausage. 

Bake: Place in a preheated 375 degrees F. oven for 45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.

Enjoy! Serve warm, or store extras in the fridge or freezer for later use.

Substitutions & Additions:

Want to swap out the veggies? You can substitute any veggies you’d like. That’s what’s so great about egg casseroles like this, you can use whatever veggies you have on hand!

Other options could be: spinach, broccoli, peppers, cauliflower or onions.

Can You Make These Into Egg Cups?

You definitely can!

If you want to make a smaller batch of this recipe, putting them into egg cups is a great way to do this!

Follow the recipe the same way, but layer the veggies, chicken sausage and egg mixture into individual muffin tins (instead of the casserole dish).

Bake in a 375 degree F. oven for 20-25 minutes, or until toothpick inserted into the middle of a muffin cup comes out clean.

Storage for Breakfast Casserole:

Store this egg casserole in an airtight container in the fridge for up to one week, or freeze in a freezer-safe container for up to 3 months.

If you make them into egg cups, you can also freeze extras by placing them in a freezer-safe container for up to 3 months.
