Ingredients:
- 1 lb ground breakfast sausage
- 4 oz bacon, diced
- 1 cup baby spinach, roughly chopped
- 8 large eggs
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1 1/2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease your 9x9 inch baking dish with butter or oil so nothing sticks.
- Fry the diced bacon in a large skillet over medium high heat until it's crispy and golden. Use a slotted spoon to remove the bacon, but keep the fat in the pan.
- Add the ground sausage to the same skillet. Break it apart with a spatula and cook until it's fully browned and sizzling.
- Toss in the chopped spinach during the last 60 seconds of cooking until it just begins to wilt. Note: Don't overcook the spinach or it will turn mushy.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk the 8 eggs, heavy cream, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until the mixture is smooth and pale yellow.
- Spread the cooked sausage, bacon, and spinach mixture evenly across the bottom of your prepared baking dish.
- Pour the egg custard over the meat until the mixture is evenly submerged.
- Sprinkle the 1 1/2 cups of shredded cheddar cheese evenly across the surface.
- Bake for 35–40 minutes until the center is set and the cheese is bubbling and golden.
- Remove from the oven and garnish with minced parsley. Let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
