This is a Morningstar Farms recipe. Both my husband and I love their veggie breakfast sausage and will definitely try this recipe - it sounds delicious! Mozzarella, or any other cheese of your choice, may be substituted for cheddar. Egg Substitute (2 cups) may also be substituted for whole eggs for a healthier version. Ingredients:
8 eggs, slightly beaten (or 2 c refrigerated egg product) |
1 cup cottage cheese |
1/4 cup milk |
1 teaspoon dried oregano |
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
1 (10 ounce) package frozen chopped spinach, thawed and well drained |
1 1/2 cups cheddar cheese, shredded (6 oz) |
6 vegetarian breakfast sausage patties, thawed and crumbled |
1/2 cup green onion, sliced |
cooking spray |
8 cherry tomatoes (optional) |
8 sprigs fresh parsley (optional) |
Directions:
1. In large bowl, beat together eggs, cottage cheese, milk, oregano, garlic powder, salt and pepper.
2. Squeeze excess moisture from spinach. Stir spinach, Cheddar cheese, patties and onions into egg mixture. Pour into 9 x 13 x 2 inch baking dish, coated with cooking spray. Bake at 325 degrees F for 35 to 40 minutes, or until set. Let stand 10 minutes before serving.
3. Cut into squares to serve. Garnish with cherry tomatoes and parsley, if desired.
