Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Heat 2 teaspoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Add the finely chopped onion and cook until it becomes soft and translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
- Add the kale to the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the kale is wilted, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat.
- In a large bowl, crack the 8 eggs.
- Add the dash of salt and black pepper.
- Whisk the eggs until the yolks and whites are fully combined.
- Add the cooked kale and onion mixture to the bowl with the beaten eggs.
- Add 1.5 cups of shredded mozzarella cheese.
- Stir everything together until well combined.
- Pour the egg mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
- Place the dish into the preheated oven.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the eggs are fully set and the top is slightly golden brown.
- To check doneness, insert a toothpick or a knife into the center; if it comes out clean, the bake is ready.
- Remove the dish from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving.
- Cut into squares and enjoy your Kale, Mozzarella, and Egg Bake warm.
Tips:
- Make sure to thoroughly wash and dry the kale before using to remove any dirt or grit.
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure even cooking.
- Consider using a non-stick baking dish or lining your dish with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
- Sauté the onions until they're soft and translucent before adding them to the mixture for extra flavor.
- If you prefer a more seasoned dish, sprinkle in some garlic powder, chili flakes, or your favorite herbs.
- Let the bake cool for a few minutes before slicing to help it set and make serving easier.
- Store any leftovers in the refrigerator and reheat in the oven or microwave for an easy meal later on.
