Keto Egg Bake With Sausage – Important Notes
- I am using sausage but you can use both to make it a delicious keto egg bake with bacon and sausage. Precook the meat and add it to the recipe.
- Instead of cream, you can use half and half
- Add steamed, pan-fry, blanched, or roasted cauliflower and broccoli. But make sure to precook them first and take the moisture out before adding. Cooking time will be slightly increased.
- Instead of broccoli, use spinach and you can also add 1/2 cup sour cream or cream cheese for a delicious keto egg bake with cream cheese.
- For a change, add mushrooms, spinach, ground pork, diced green & red peppers.
- Add a few pieces of cooked and crumbled bacon on top before adding the remaining cheese, see in the recipe card below.
- Add any cheese you have in hand like mozzarella, cheddar cheese, American, Swiss, or Monterey Jack.
- Use a 9×9 inch glass casserole dish for this recipe (recommended), or use an 8×8 or 9×13 casserole dish.
