Ingredients
- 1 tsp Olive oil
- 453.59 g Breakfast sausage
- 273 g Broccoli (optional – cut into florets if using)
- 6 cloves Garlic (minced)
- 12 large Egg
- 119 g Heavy cream
- 226 g Cheddar cheese (divided)
- 29.57 g Fresh parsley (chopped)
- 1.23 g Sea salt
- 1.23 g Black pepper
Instructions
- Heat some oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add minced garlic to the skillet and cook for about one minute until its aroma is noticeable.
- Add breakfast sausage to the skillet and cook for around 10 minutes, breaking it apart with a spatula until it turns brown.
- At the same time, preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- If you plan to use broccoli or other vegetables, blanch them in boiling water for 5-7 minutes until they are crisp-tender. Then, transfer them to an ice bath to halt cooking, drain, and pat them dry.
- Whisk the eggs, heavy cream, half of the cheddar cheese, parsley, sea salt, and black pepper in a large mixing bowl.
- Grease the bottom of a 9×13 inch (22×33 cm) glass or ceramic casserole dish with some oil. Arrange the crumbled sausage evenly at the bottom of the dish. If you include broccoli or any pre-cooked vegetables, mix them with the sausage at this step.
- Pour the egg mixture over the sausage and vegetables (if added) and sprinkle the remaining cheddar cheese.
- Bake the casserole in the oven for approximately 30 minutes until the eggs are set, and the cheese is melted.
