Ingredients
Scale
- 8 large eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 cup cooked turkey, shredded or diced
- 1 cup frozen spinach, thawed and drained
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup diced bell pepper
- 1/2 cup diced onion
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with cooking spray or olive oil.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder until well combined.
- In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced bell pepper and onion, and sauté for about 5 minutes, or until softened.
- Add the cooked turkey and spinach to the skillet, stirring to combine. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until heated through.
- Pour the turkey and vegetable mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.
- Pour the egg mixture over the turkey and vegetables, ensuring everything is evenly coated.
- Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese on top.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the top is lightly golden.
- Let the casserole cool for about 5 minutes before slicing and serving.
Notes
- For a spicier kick, add diced jalapeños or a dash of hot sauce to the egg mixture.
- You can also substitute the turkey with cooked sausage or ham for a different flavor profile.
- For a lighter version, use egg whites instead of whole eggs and low-fat cheese.
