Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb bulk pork breakfast sausage
  • 2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and cubed
  • 1 small yellow onion, diced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 bunch lacinato kale, stemmed and chopped
  • 12 large eggs
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk
  • 1 tsp fine sea salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1/4 tsp smoked paprika (optional)
  • 1 tbsp avocado oil

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F. Brown the sausage in a skillet with oil, then remove. In the same pan, cook sweet potatoes 8 to 10 minutes until tender. Add onion and garlic, cook 2 minutes. Stir in kale and cook until wilted, 2 to 3 minutes.
  2. Whisk eggs with almond milk, salt, pepper, and paprika until smooth.
  3. In a greased 9x13 dish, layer sausage and vegetables, pour eggs over, stir gently, and let sit 5 minutes.
  4. Bake 30 to 35 minutes until set in the center. Let rest 10 minutes, slice, and serve.

Notes

If you use an 8x8 dish, the casserole will be thicker and may need up to 40 minutes to bake through. The sweet potatoes must be fully cooked before they go into the egg mixture, or they won’t soften in the oven.
