Sausage and Egg Whole30 Breakfast Casserole
Happy first Tasty Tuesday of the year everyone! I’m so excited to share this delicious and healthy Sausage & Egg Whole30 Breakfast Casserole with you today, as it’s something I’ve been loving eating over the past month.
Yep, that’s right. I’ve secretly been doing Whole30 for 1 month now – which means I’ve went a full 30 days without dairy, sugar, grains, legumes, alcohol, and processed/junk foods.
Curious about my results? You can check out my Whole30 Results over here and my Life After Whole30 Post Here.
If you follow me on Instagram, I actually shared a sneak peek of this casserole on my stories a couple weeks back asking if you would be interested in the recipe, and you all answered a resounding YES. Therefore, your wish is my command! 🙂
Sausage and Egg Whole30 Breakfast Casserole
Moving on to the main star of the show for today’s post- this Whole30 Breakfast Casserole features delicious turkey sausage, eggs, a load of fresh veggies including peppers, onion, and spinach, and my favorite onion and herb spice blend to bring it all together!
One of the reasons I love this Whole30 Breakfast Casserole is I can make it on a Sunday and have my breakfast set for the whole week ahead. I also love using this awesome casserole dish, so I can make it and store it in the same dish.
Now I know what you’re thinking – but don’t you get tired of eating this breakfast casserole everyday?
Honestly, no. It’s so flavorful and loaded with healthy ingredients that keep you full and energized throughout your morning, that I have zero complaints with eating it repeatedly.
It’s also super easy because all the ingredients can be prepped ahead. Usually if I have extra time one evening, I’ll go ahead and chop up my veggies and refrigerate them until I’m ready, which saves a ton of time the day of.
You could even cook up the turkey sausage ahead of time as well, and warm up when you’re ready to assemble the breakfast casserole.
Reasons You’ll Love This Whole30 Breakfast Casserole
- It’s healthy, delicious, and Whole30, Paleo, and Keto Approved
- It’s easy for weekly meal-prep, and ingredients can be prepped ahead
- It isn’t heavy like traditional breakfast casseroles that give you a mid-morning slump
- You can switch up the veggies and seasonings for yummy variations (mushrooms, tomatoes, and sweet potatoes are great options)
Tips For Making The Best Whole30 Breakfast Casserole
- Use fresh veggies if possible. I’ve found using fresh peppers and onions really enhances the overall flavor of the dish, and gives you a better texture for your casserole.
- If using frozen spinach, make sure you squeeze any excess water out of your spinach to avoid a watery casserole.
- Don’t overbake your casserole. I’ve found mine gets done perfectly at 30 minutes, but of course every oven is different. A simple way to check to see if it’s done is to stick a knife in the center of the breakfast casserole and if it comes out clean, it’s done!
Just look at how colorful and delicious the veggies look in it! Yum, yum, and yum!

My wife loves eating breakfast casseroles. We went out one morning after eating one and right as we pulled up to a stop sign wife threw up in my car. While that was gross, it got worse because she threw up again on our carpet at home. We had to call a carpet cleaning service to get our carpets cleaned up. So far, my wife has loved your casserole. I guess I will be making your casserole from now on! My wife says thanks.

Glad you and your wife enjoy it. Thanks for rating it 5 stars!
Delicious!!!

Thanks Sue!
Can you prepare this the night before and then put in the oven in the morning?
Yes, you can. Simply cover with a lid or plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to bake the next day.
Thanks so much! Plan on fixing this over the holidays, for guests 😀
You’re welcome! Hope you all enjoy it!
Do you have nutritional facts for this dish? I’m only wondering so I can log it with my current diet
Hi Megan,
I don’t sorry, but you can put everything into My Fitness Pal or something similar and it will tell you. Enjoy!
What is the white stuff on top in the picture that looks like cheese? I do not see that in the recipe.
Hi Kerrie, it’s the egg whites from the eggs. Enjoy!
Has anyone tried this in a slow cooker?
Hi Stacey, I haven’t tried it in the slow cooker because it bakes up quickly in the oven, but if you do let me know how it works out!
Thanks for sharing! How far ahead of time can I make it?
You’re so welcome! I usually make it the night before, but it stays fresh in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
This looks so good! What a great way to still enjoy a hearty breakfast while sticking to this diet!
Thanks Suzanne! It’s one of my favorites year-round.
Have you tried cooking in two 8×8 pans? Wondering how that would affect the cooking time! 🙂
Hi Lauren! I haven’t, but if you end up trying it I’d love to hear how it turns out. I wouldn’t think you would have to adjust the times since essentially you’re putting half the ingredients into each. Hope you enjoy it!
First off I love this!
Second I have a question.. How long does this stay good in the air tight container in the fridge? is it just one week? Or two??
Thanks Kelby! Mine usually stays good for about a week. If you don’t expect to eat it all in that amount of time, I’d recommend freezing the rest of it. Hope you enjoy it!
Made this for my breakfast meal prep and really enjoyed it. Do you have the nutritional information for it somewhere?
So glad you loved it! And I don’t, sorry. You can always enter it into myfitnesspal or something similar.
Really good and simple

Thanks Dawn! So glad you enjoyed it! 🙂
