Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- ½ onion diced, large
- 1 green bell pepper deseeded and diced
- 2 garlic minced, cloves
- 2 cups ham cooked, diced
- 12 egg large
- ⅓ cup milk dairy or dairy-free
- salt Kosher salt and freshly ground
- black pepper Kosher salt and freshly ground
- 4 cups broccoli florets, from one head
- 1 cup cheddar cheese shredded
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and get a 9×13-inch casserole dish out. Heat the oil in a large saute pan over medium heat. Add the onion and bell pepper and stir for 3 minutes. Add the minced garlic and broccoli florets (make sure they're in bite-sized pieces and not too large) and stir for another 3 minutes or until the broccoli is crisp-tender and bright green.
- Transfer the onion and broccoli mixture to the casserole dish. Add the diced ham and cheese, then stir everything together.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper together, until lightly frothy.
- Pour the egg mixture on top of the ham and vegetables. Cook for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the center is cooked through and the edges are slightly golden.
- Slice the breakfast casserole into squares, and if you'd like, garnish freshly chopped herbs before serving.
