Ingredients
  

  • 10 large eggs
  • 1 pound ground breakfast sausage
  • cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 red bell pepper diced
  • 1 small onion finely chopped
  • 2 cups fresh spinach roughly chopped
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • Cooking spray or butter for greasing

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F and generously grease a 9×13 inch baking dish with butter or cooking spray.
  • Brown the sausage in a large skillet over medium heat, breaking it into small crumbles as it cooks. This takes about 6 to 8 minutes. Remove from heat and drain any excess grease.
  • Sauté the vegetables in the same pan with a little oil if needed. Cook the onion and bell pepper until softened, about 4 minutes, then add the spinach until it wilts.
  • Whisk together the eggs and cream in a large bowl until completely combined. Add the garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
  • Layer everything in the baking dish. Spread the cooked sausage and vegetables evenly across the bottom, then sprinkle with half the cheese.
  • Pour the egg mixture over everything, making sure it reaches all corners. Top with the remaining cheese.
  • Bake for 35 to 40 minutes until the center is set and the top turns golden brown. A knife inserted in the center should come out clean.
  • Let it cool for 10 minutes before slicing. This makes all the difference for clean, beautiful portions.
