Wake up to a healthy start with this easy breakfast casserole! Our Mushroom and Spinach Egg Bake is loaded with protein and vitamin-rich spinach. We love it when we can have both healthy and tasty!

What You'll Need

  • 2 teaspoons canola oil
  • 4 cups packed fresh spinach
  • 1/4 cup chopped onion
  • 1 1/2 cup sliced mushrooms
  • 2 cups egg substitute
  • 1 cup shredded reduced-fat mozzarella cheese
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt (optional)
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

What to Do

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Coat a 9-inch square baking dish with cooking spray.
  2. In a large skillet over medium heat, heat oil; add spinach and cook about 2 minutes, or until spinach is wilted. Place spinach in baking dish.
  3. In the same skillet over medium-high heat, cook onion and mushrooms 4 to 5 minutes, or until soft. Place over spinach.
  4. In a medium bowl, whisk together egg substitute, cheese, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, salt, if desired, and pepper. Pour egg mixture over vegetables and stir gently until well combined.
  5. Bake 30 to 35 minutes, or until eggs are set in center. Let sit 5 minutes before serving.

I have hard time getting my diabetic husband to eat the veggies he needs, but he likes eggs and he likes cheese, so I tried this recipe. It turned out great and it made a pretty presentation with the green and yellow color contrast, and lo and behold, he not only liked this casserole, he asked for seconds and called it a keeper. Loved this result and would recommend it to any and all!
