Fat-Blasting Baked Egg Casserole
- 2 tablespoons vegetable broth or 2 tablespoons water
- 6 ounces sliced cremini mushrooms (baby bella)
- 1/2 cup chopped red bell pepper
- 2 teaspoons simply organic all-purpose seasoning (or another seasoning blend you like)
- 2 teaspoons minced fresh jalapenos (optional)
- 2 1/2 cups packed fresh spinach, roughly chopped
- 4 ounces turkey bacon, cooked and chopped
- sea salt
- fresh ground black pepper
- 9 egg whites
- 3 green onions, thinly sliced
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Line a 7-by-11-inch baking dish with parchment.
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add 2 tablespoons of vegetable broth or water, the mushrooms, red bell pepper, Simply Organic seasoning, and optional jalapenos. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are nearly tender, about 3 minutes.
- Add the spinach. Cook until the spinach is cooked down and bright green, about 1 minute. Remove the pan from the heat. Stir in the turkey bacon, and season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Spread the spinach mixture evenly on the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Whisk the egg whites, then pour them over the spinach mixture. Scatter the green onions on top.
- Bake until the egg whites are set, about 25 minutes. Test by poking a small sharp knife into the middle of the casserole and taking a peek - it should be moist inside, but not liquidy.
- Let the casserole sit for about 5 minutes, and then cut into pieces and serve. (The leftovers reheat well in the microwave - just cover and refrigerate.).
