  • 1/2 teaspoon Garlic Powder
  • 12 large Eggs
  • 1 small Sweet Potato, peeled and sliced thin
  • 1 cup Baby Spinach

Instructions

Notes

  • Try using different meats like ground pork sausage for variety.
  • Make individual servings using a muffin pan for easy portion control.
  • Turn it into a quiche by using a pie crust for a different presentation.
  • If the top browns too quickly, cover with foil while baking.
  • Adjust cooking time if the center of the casserole is not firm.
  • Use just enough sweet potato to cover the bottom of the dish.
