A simple and healthy baked eggs recipe perfect for meal prep and nutritious breakfasts, using eggs, Greek yogurt, vegetables, and pre-cooked sausage baked in individual oven-safe bowls.

  • Total Time: 45 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

Egg Mixture

  • 8 eggs (2 eggs per bowl)
  • 1 cup Greek yogurt (Fage 0%)
  • 1/4 tsp salt

Vegetables & Meat

  • 1/2 cup onion (diced)
  • 1/2 cup red bell pepper (diced)
  • 1.5 cups spinach (chopped)
  • 2 cups breakfast sausage (pre-cooked, chopped)

Toppings

  • 8 tsp shredded cheese (2 tsp per bowl)
  • Cracked black pepper (to taste)

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit to prepare for baking the eggs evenly.
  2. Mix Egg Base: In a large mixing bowl, combine the eggs, Greek yogurt, and salt. Use a hand mixer to blend the mixture until smooth and free of lumps.
  3. Distribute Ingredients: Evenly divide the egg mixture into four oven-safe glass bowls, filling each about 3/4 cup to 1 cup. Distribute the diced onion, red bell pepper, chopped spinach, and chopped pre-cooked sausage evenly among the bowls.
  4. Combine and Top: Stir the ingredients together gently in each bowl. Then, sprinkle 2 teaspoons of shredded cheese over each bowl and add a dash of cracked black pepper.
  5. Bake: Place the bowls in the preheated oven and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the eggs are fully cooked through and set.
  6. Cool and Serve: Allow the baked eggs to cool slightly for about 10 minutes before serving or storing for meal prep.

Notes

  • Use oven-safe glass bowls to ensure safe baking and easy cleanup.
  • Adjust the vegetable and sausage quantities based on personal preference or dietary needs.
  • Greek yogurt adds creaminess without excess fat; using 0% is a low-fat option.
  • Cheese toppings can be substituted with your favorite type or omitted for a dairy-free version.
  • Can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days for convenient meal prep.
