Tips:

  • Choose the right sausage: Use a mild or sweet Italian sausage for a less spicy flavor, or a hot Italian sausage for a more robust flavor.
  • Cook the sausage thoroughly: Brown the sausage over medium heat until it is no longer pink in the center. This will help to prevent the casserole from being undercooked.
  • Use fresh kale: Fresh kale is best for this casserole, but you can also use frozen kale if necessary. Just be sure to thaw it completely before using.
  • Season the casserole well: Use a combination of salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder to season the casserole. You can also add other herbs and spices to your liking.
  • Don't overcook the casserole: The casserole is done when the eggs are set and the kale is tender. Overcooking will make the eggs rubbery and the kale tough.

Conclusion:

This sausage, egg, and kale casserole is a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast or brunch dish. It is packed with protein and vegetables, and it is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy breakfast or brunch recipe, give this casserole a try. You won't be disappointed!
