    Remove from the skillet and place on top of the ground sausage in the casserole dish.
  • Let the veggies and meat cool, then top with feta crumbles.

Make the egg custard

  • In a large measuring cup or mixing bowl, add the eggs, half and half or whole milk, dry mustard, parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper to taste, and whisk until thoroughly combined.
  • Pour the egg mixture over the top of the cooled sausage and veggies. Top with the shredded sharp white cheddar.
    To Freeze: Wrap the assembled casserole in plastic wrap, followed by foil, and place in the freezer. Refrigerate overnight to thaw before baking.

To bake

  • Preheat oven to 350℉. Bake the casserole for 45-50 minutes or until the middle is set and the top is light golden brown.

  1. made this tonight for meal prep for the week. swapped in spinach instead of the kale and added baby bella mushrooms to use up what was in the fridge. also used bacon instead of sausage. it smells incredible and i’m going to feel so fancy warming up a serving each morning!
