Cornbread Egg Casserole image

I have always liked the idea of egg casseroles, but I haven't been a fan of those with hash browns or bread. Then one day, I saw a recipe for one using southwest ingredients and cornbread.

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 oz cornbread
1/4 c lightly sautéed or steamed vegetable(s): spinach, broccoli, asparagus . . .
1 egg
2 Tbsp milk
pinch of salt and pepper
pinch of lawry salt-free 17 seasoning or mrs. dash
1/2 oz shredded cheese, a variety you like

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • 2. Measure ingredients X the number to be served. For example, to serve 4, use 4 times all the ingredients.
  • 3. Cut the cornbread into cubes and toast in the oven for about 3-5 minutes or until the cornbread begins to brown and is crispy.
  • 4. Use a baking dish large enough for the number of servings; spray it with cooking spray. Spread the toasted cornbread in the prepared dish.
  • 5. Layer the partially cooked vegetable(s) over the cornbread.
  • 6. In a mixing bowl, beat the egg(s) well, and add the milk, seasoning, salt, and pepper.
  • 7. Pour the eggs over the vegetables. Sprinkle the cheese over the eggs.
  • 8. Bake in preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until the egg(s) are set. More time might be necessary for more servings. Remove from oven and cut into servings if you are making more than one.
  • 9. Note: Maybe my favorite is spinach and feta! (Precooking fresh spinach isn't necessary.) Sometimes, I will make two or three servings for myself; the baked product warms well in the micro.
