As much as I wish I could make my family fancy breakfast every morning, that’s just not reality. We have a generally busy life. From working to blogging to web design to family and all of life’s other adventures thrown in the mix. I am such a fan of meal prep. It makes our crazy weeks a little more manageable. This Low Carb Breakfast Casserole has just five simple ingredients, is packed with veggies, and super easy to whip up. Cue meal prep Sunday!

Low Carb Breakfast Casserole

The Ingredients

I miss potatoes. Their starchy, potatoey goodness lends something to a breakfast casserole that I never thought I would be able to replace. Chopped cauliflower has filled that void for me. It’s way less calories, and soaks up the sausage flavor like none other. It’s not a potato replacement per se, but it certainly adds a potato-like component to the casserole. Next, add in some eggs, a little cheese, and a dash of cream and you’re ready to go.

The Execution

This casserole is SO easy. Start by chopping the cauliflower. I aim for chunks the size of a cubed dime. Smaller pieces prevent you from getting a giant mouth full of cauliflower. Think diced-potato size. Place all of the chopped cauliflower in a large bowl. Next, brown and crumble some breakfast sausage. Add this to the chopped cauliflower, and let cool for a few minutes. Crack in the eggs, add the cheese and cream, and mix together. Pour the mix in a 8.5″ x 11″ baking pan, and bake for 45 minutes. You can snag an Emile Henry pan like mine here (they are non-stick and so gorgeous. Just be sure to always hand wash!).
