Recipe: Breakfast Casserole

This is based on a very yummy higher-carb (and slightly more time-consuming) recipe that my mother makes whenever we have a brunch. I love this stuff!!

Note: This is basically a double batch. If you want to make just one casserole, cut the ingredients in about half.

Ingredients

  • 1.5 lbs ground pork
  • 0.5 lbs ground beef
  • 12 eggs
  • 0.5 cup whole milk (or use heavy cream with some water to cut the carbs more)
  • 16 oz sour cream
  • 16 oz cheddar cheese (shredded)
  • 3 tbsp Italian seasoning (or other seasoning, whatever you like!)
  • Salt to taste
  • Pepper to taste
Directions
  1. Brown the pork and beef together. Drain, add the Italian seasoning, and mix well.
  2. Divide the meat mixture into 2 casserole dishes.
  3. Mix the eggs and milk together and scramble.
  4. Divide the cooked scrambled eggs between the two casserole dishes.
  5. Sprinkle salt and pepper over the eggs.
  6. Divide the sour cream between the two casserole dishes. Spread evenly over the eggs.
  7. Divide the cheese between the two casserole dishes, sprinkling evenly over the sour cream.
  8. Bake at 350 degrees until the cheese melts.
I figured about 12 servings for this, maybe less if you're having it with other stuff. Each serving has:
  • 493 calories
  • 39g fat
  • 30g protein
  • 4g carbs
