Mushroom Kale Egg Bake
Fluffy, hearty, and very filling. This Egg Bake recipe uses a variety of tasty, high protein ingredients like cottage cheese and sausage. Perfect for meal prep!
Ingredients
- 1 tsp. olive oil
- 1 1/2 cups mushrooms sliced
- 1/2 medium yellow onion diced
- 1 tsp. dried thyme
- 2 cups kale chopped
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- salt
- 12 eggs
- 16 oz. cottage cheese full-fat
- 5 oz. soft goat cheese
- 4 links pre-cooked chicken and apple sausage diced
- 1/2 cup favorite fruit (per serving, when ready to eat)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 and grease the baking pan.
- In a pan over medium heat, add the olive oil, mushrooms, onions, thyme and a pinch of salt. Sauté until soft, about 5 minutes. Add the kale and garlic and sauté for another 2 minutes or until kale is softened.
- In a large bowl, add the eggs and cottage cheese. Whisk to combine. Sprinkle in the goat cheese, sausage, and cooked veggies and stir to combine.
- Pour the mixture into the greased pan and bake for 30-35 minutes. You know it's ready when you poke a knife into the center and it comes out clean.
- Allow it to fully cool before slicing into 6 pieces and storing in a sealed container in the fridge.
- When ready to eat, pair one slice of egg bake with 1/2 cup of your favorite fruit. This can be eaten hot or cold. If you want to heat it up, microwave one slice for 30-60 seconds. Or you can wrap it in foil and warm it up in an oven pre-heated to 350 F for 10 minutes.
