High-Protein, Low-Carb Egg + Veggie Breakfast Casserole
Ingredients
1 Package Organic Deli Slow-Cooked Ham or Applegate Black Forest Ham (or swap with cooked turkey bacon or sausage for more protein)
12 eggs (omega 3 – farm-raised pastured)
6 tablespoons heavy cream or half and half (organic)
Salt and pepper (to taste)
3–4 slices Organic New York Aged Cheddar or Cheese of Your Choice (or opt for mozzarella for a milder flavor)
3 large Swiss chard leaves, chopped
1/2 yellow or red bell pepper, chopped
1/4–1/2 cup green onion, chopped
Optional: 1/4 cup mushrooms, spinach, or zucchini (for added veggies without extra carbs)
Directions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
Chop the Swiss chard, bell pepper, onion, and any optional vegetables you'd like to add.
In a mixing bowl, whisk the eggs with salt, pepper, and heavy cream. You can also add any desired spices (such as garlic powder, paprika, or herbs) for extra flavor.
Line a 9x13-inch baking dish with the ham slices (or turkey bacon/sausage). Pour the egg mixture over the ham. Add the chopped vegetables to the egg mixture and mix lightly.
Bake for approximately 30 minutes, or until the eggs are mostly set. Remove from the oven and top with cheese slices.
Return the casserole to the oven and bake for an additional 5 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Let it cool for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve immediately, or cover and store in the refrigerator for up to a week.
