English Muffin Breakfast Casserole image

This hearty breakfast meal, full of fresh tomatoes and mushrooms, gets much of its terrific flavor and texture from the English muffins that line the bottom of the dish. I found this on wholefoodsmarket.com

Yield 1 pan, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 whole wheat English muffins, split
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 medium tomatoes, chopped
1 lb mushroom, sliced
salt and pepper, to taste
8 eggs

Steps:

  • Arrange English muffin halves in the bottom of a greased 9- x 13-inch baking dish, cutting them to fit, if necessary; set aside.
  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add tomatoes, mushrooms, salt and pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender and liquid is thickened, 8 to 10 minutes. Spoon tomato mixture over the top of the English muffins, distributing it evenly; set aside to let cool.
