SAUSAGE, SPINACH AND CHEESE BREAKFAST SQUARES



Sausage, Spinach and Cheese Breakfast Squares image

Easy peasy and adjustable. These are good served hot, fresh from the oven, but I make them for us to take to work and eat there. They also freeze and reheat very well. I also used cubed ham if sausage isn't available. And if I have a lot of chopped green or spring onions left over from something, I use those as well as yellow or white onion. Feel free to play with the ingredients. I use 14 large eggs - adjust accordingly. Nuking the sausage ahead of time makes clean up way easier. I end up putting the eggs, baking mix, spinach, salt pepper in the Cuisinart then I just stir in the sausage and cheese.

SAUSAGE, SPINACH, CHEESE & POTATO LOW CARB BREAKFAST SQUARES



Sausage, Spinach, Cheese & Potato Low Carb Breakfast Squares image

These freeze well, reheat well. Mr. Wonderful takes them to work for an easy, low carb breakfast. And this recipe is pretty flexible, easily adaptable. If you don't want to use bulk sausage, cut up some pre-cooked link sausages or microwave some uncooked link sausages. Yes, potatoes have carbs, duh, but one potato for 12 servings is very satisfying without doing a lot of damage. Use whichever cheese you prefer: cheddar, jack, colby, whatever.
