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.

- 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.
