Instructions

Preheat the oven: Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with butter or non-stick spray.
Cook the sausage: In a large skillet over medium heat, cook sausage until browned and crumbled. Drain excess fat and set aside.
Sauté vegetables: In the same skillet, cook bell peppers and onions for 5 minutes until soft. Add spinach and cook until wilted. Remove from heat.
Prepare egg mixture: In a bowl, whisk together eggs, heavy cream, garlic powder, oregano, salt, and pepper until smooth.
Assemble casserole: Spread sausage evenly in the baking dish, top with vegetables, then pour the egg mixture over everything. Sprinkle cheddar cheese on top.
Bake: Bake for 30–35 minutes, or until eggs are set and the top is golden brown. A toothpick inserted in the center should come out clean.
Serve: Let cool for a few minutes before slicing. Serve warm with avocado slices, sour cream, or a green salad if desired.

Notes

Use Italian sausage, or turkey sausage for variation—just make sure it’s keto-friendly.

Substitute heavy cream with unsweetened almond milk or coconut cream for a lighter version.

Add mushrooms, zucchini, or broccoli for extra vegetables (sauté first to remove moisture).

For added spice, mix in diced jalapeños or a dash of hot sauce.

This casserole freezes well—wrap individual portions and store for up to 2 months.
