Low Fat Egg And Ham Breakfast Casserole Recipes

VEGGIE HAM AND CHEESE EGG BAKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375°F. Spray a 9 x 13 baking dish with oil.
• Place 1 cup of cheese into the baking dish.
• Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat; add scallions, mushrooms and red pepper and sauté until vegetables are tender, about 5 to 6 minutes. Add the tomatoes and cook 2 - 3 minutes. Add the ham and broccoli and remove from heat. Spread evenly over the cheese mixture.
• In a large bowl combine the eggs, egg whites, milk, salt and pepper and whisk well. Slowly pour over the vegetables in the baking dish and top with remaining cheese.
• Bake until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean, 32 to 35 minutes. Let stand 8 to 10 minutes before cutting into 12 pieces.

LOW FAT BREAKFAST CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Sute onion and pepper in oil until beginning to soften. Add sausage, and, when the sausage is beginning to brown, add the ham. Saute for several minutes more.
• Spray a casserole with non-stick spray, and layer 1/2 of the pepper/onion/meat mix in the bottom of the casserole. Top with 1/2 cup of the baking mix (low-fat bisquik) and 1/2 cup of cheese.
• Cover the cheese layer with the remaining pepper/onion/meat mix, and top with the remaining baking mix and cheese.
• In a large bowl, mix the egg substitute, milk, and spices. Pour the egg mixture over the layers in the casserole, and, with a knife, mix the casserole layers slightly to let the egg mixture penetrate all. At this point, the casserole can be covered to sit in the fridge overnight, or it can be baked immediately. (I prefer to let it sit; the flavors meld and improve).
• To bake: Preheat oven to 350 F and bake for 30-45 minutes, until set in the middle. Let cool before serving.
