Ingredients
For the potatoes:
3 Yukon Gold potatoes (~1 pound), chopped into ¼-inch pieces
1 tbsp olive oil
½ tsp sea salt
Freshly ground black pepper
For the casserole:
12 large eggs
1 cup milk (whole or unsweetened almond milk)
1¼ tsp sea salt
2 tbsp olive oil (plus more for greasing)
½ medium yellow onion, chopped
Freshly ground black pepper
2 garlic cloves, chopped
1 red bell pepper, chopped
1 green bell pepper, chopped
1 cup fresh spinach, roughly chopped
4 green onions, chopped
1½ cups shredded cheddar cheese
Instructions
-
Roast the potatoes: Preheat oven to 425°F. Toss potatoes with olive oil, salt, and pepper, spread on a parchment-lined baking sheet, and roast 20–25 minutes until golden and tender.
-
Prepare the egg mixture: In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, and ¼ tsp salt. Set aside.
-
Sauté vegetables: Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook onions with salt and pepper 5–8 minutes until soft. Add garlic and peppers, cook 2 more minutes, then stir in spinach and half the green onions until spinach is wilted.
-
Assemble the casserole: Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish. Layer potatoes, 1 cup cheese, vegetables, egg mixture, remaining ½ cup cheese, and reserved green onions.
-
Bake: Reduce oven to 350°F and bake 40–45 minutes until eggs are set. Let stand 5 minutes before slicing.
