Is this a healthy recipe?
I believe it is, especially if you use fresh uncured sausage meat (basically meat and spices).
Fresh unprocessed pork meat can be part of a healthy diet, in moderation. Eggs are healthy, and cheese is harmless for most healthy people.
This casserole is a complete low carb and keto meal. Meat, eggs, cheese, and vegetables in one tasty package.
What to do with leftover sausage breakfast casserole?
Leftovers keep well for 3-4 days in the fridge in a sealed container. They taste great after a gentle reheat in the microwave on 50% power.
Sometimes I make two casseroles, just to make sure I have leftovers! On weeks when I make this casserole, I don’t need to make breakfast egg muffins.

And this tasty cabbage casserole is my own version of my beloved grandma’s stuffed cabbage leaves. It’s not as good as her recipe (none of my recipes come close to hers), but it’s very very good.

Keto Sausage Breakfast Casserole
INGREDIENTS
- 2 teaspoons olive oil, divided
- 1 lb. frozen spinach, whole leaves
- 1 lb. Italian pork sausage (I used the Whole Foods brand)
- 1 pint cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, divided
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, divided
- 8 large eggs
- 1/2 cup shredded Monterey Jack or cheddar cheese
INSTRUCTIONS
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Grease a 2-quart casserole dish with 1 teaspoon olive oil.
- Heat a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat. Add the frozen spinach and cook, stirring often and breaking it up, until it’s defrosted. Allow to slightly cool, then place the spinach in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out as much liquid as you can.
- Wipe the skillet clean and add a teaspoon of olive oil. Add the sausage and cook, stirring and breaking it up, until browned, about 5 minutes.
- Add the drained spinach, tomatoes, garlic, 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt and 1/8 teaspoon black pepper to the skillet. Mix everything to combine.
- Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish.
- Whisk the eggs with the remaining salt and pepper. Pour on top of the sausage mixture. Sprinkle the cheese on top.
- Bake until eggs are set and cheese is browned, about 30 minutes. Allow to rest 10 minutes before serving.
