Ingredients

  • 1.5 cups potatoes diced small (about 7 mini potatoes)
  • 12 eggs
  • ⅛ cup leeks sliced
  • ½ cup salsa
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ⅔ cup Bacon cooked and chopped
  • ⅛ cup nutritional yeast
  • ¼ cup almond milk
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 tbs vegan butter optional
  • Cracked Pepper to Taste

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Whisk together the eggs, salsa, milk, nutritional yeast, garlic powder, and salt.
  2. Line a 7-quart slow cooker with parchment paper. Layer the potatoes, leeks, and bacon.
  3. Pour in the egg mixture and stir in the butter.
  4. Place a thick tea towel over the slow cooker and then the lid.
  5. Cook on low for 3.5 hours.

Notes

  • Make sure to line your slow cooker with parchment paper before adding any ingredients. It makes cleanup so much easier.
  • The kind of salsa you choose will affect the flavor.
  • Don’t overlook placing a tea towel over the top of the slow cooker before the lid. The tea towel absorbs the liquid from the steam. Not doing this will make the dairy-free egg casserole rubbery.
  • Any vegetable will work in place of the peppers except mushrooms (they’re too watery). We enjoy asparagus the most. Likewise, sweet potatoes can be used in place of regular.
  • If you don’t need this slow cooker breakfast casserole to be whole30 approved, add in ⅓ cup dairy-free cheese for flavor.
  • Make sure not to seal the lid down on the slow cooker with clasps, it’s okay if some heat escapes.
  • Each slow cooker is slightly different. Cook for 3.5 hours and then turn the slow cooker to warm. This whole30 breakfast casserole was made in a 7-quart slow cooker. Any larger than that and the cooking length may be shorter. Likewise, it may be longer if using a smaller one.
