Cheap Paleo Breakfast Casserole

Cheap Paleo Breakfast Casserole

This  Paleo Breakfast casserole takes some time, but it is well worth it in my opinion. You will make 4-5 weeks of breakfast so you won’t have to make it again for a month!!

I  Ingredients

j             36 eggs $6.30

6 color bell peppers $6.98 

6 cups fresh spinach $5.00

1 sweet onion $.65

2 medium sweet potatoes $1.90

Total= $20.83
24 servings

$.87 a serving

Wash all vegetables.

Chop bell peppers and onion into ½ inch cubes. Get a very large sauté pan and heat 1Tbs olive oil.

Put peppers and onion in sauté pan and season with 1 tsp garlic powder, ½ tsp salt and ¼ tsp pepper. Sauté bell peppers and onion on medium heat and cook until just tender, approx 8-10 minutes. You don’t want to over cook because it will continue to cook in the oven later

Place peppers and onion in a colander in a large bowl to help drain the liquid

While pan is still hot add 1Tsb (second Tbs of oil will be used in just a minute keep it close) olive oil. Place 1-2 handfuls of spinach in it.  Have spices measured out because you need to work fast. Use approx half of your spices. Toss spinach until it is starts to wilt. Take the spinach out and put it on a cutting board. Use the left over oil and spices and cook the rest of spinach. After all spinach is cooked chop it up finely. Place spinach into the colander with the peppers and onion. 

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Line 2 baking pans approx 6”x13” with foil for easy clean up

I don't have a picture of the sweet potatoes, but I put the instructions in here.

Peel and chop sweet potatoes into ½ inch cubes, place sweet potatoes in a microwave safe bowl, add 1 inch of water, microwave sweet potatoes for about 5 minutes or until soft, set aside and let cool.

Crack eggs in a large bowl and mix with an immersion blender. Add cooled vegetables and potatoes and mix with the immersion blender just enough to merry the vegetables and eggs.

Pour equal parts of egg mix into each pan. Place in oven for 40-50 minutes. Stick a toothpick in the middle of the casserole to see if it is done-the toothpick should come out clean.

Let the eggs cool for about 20 minutes

Cut the egg casserole into desired pieces and place in plastic bags.

To warm: take egg out of bag, wrap with paper towel, put on microwave safe plate, microwave for 2-3 minutes or until it is at desired temperature. 

Serve with a side of bacon and avocado.
