Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Peel and dice the sweet potatoes. Set aside.
- In a large skillet, heat 1/2 tablespoon of coconut oil over medium heat.
- Add the chopped onions and cook until they become translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
- Add the sliced Vienna sausages and cook until they are lightly browned, about 5-6 minutes.
- Add the diced sweet potatoes and cook for another 5-7 minutes until they start to soften.
- Add the garlic powder, ground nutmeg, salt, and white pepper, then stir to combine.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the 12 beaten eggs and 1/4 cup coconut milk until well combined.
- Add the roughly chopped spinach to the egg mixture and mix well.
- Pour the sausage and sweet potato mixture into a greased 9x13-inch baking dish.
- Evenly spread the mixture in the dish.
- Pour the egg and spinach mixture over the sausage and sweet potatoes, making sure everything is evenly distributed.
6. Bake the Casserole:
- Place the casserole in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the eggs are fully set and the top is golden brown.
- Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving.
- Slice into squares and serve warm.
Tips:
- For a more flavorful dish, consider using a mix of sweet and hot sausages to add more depth.
- You can substitute spinach with other leafy greens such as kale or Swiss chard for a different taste and texture.
- If you prefer, you can use regular milk or any plant-based milk instead of coconut milk.
- Be sure to cut the sweet potatoes into uniform pieces to ensure even cooking.
- For a crispier texture, you can briefly broil the casserole in the oven for the last few minutes of the baking time.
With its delightful combination of flavors and easy preparation, this sausage and sweet potato casserole is sure to become a favorite in your household. It’s a versatile dish that can be enjoyed at any time of the day and provides a well-rounded meal packed with nutrition.
