Ingredients for Breakfast Egg Casserole Recipe

  • Butter: Provides fat for sautéing, helps mushrooms brown, and adds flavor richness. Olive oil can also be used.
  • Baby Bella Mushrooms: Add earthy depth and umami, and sautéing removes excess moisture so the casserole isn’t watery. 
  • Ham: Adds a salty, savory protein boost and balances the richness of the eggs and cheese. 
  • Eggs: The base of the casserole, binding everything together while giving it a rich, custardy texture .
  • Skim Milk: Lightens the texture of the eggs, keeps them moist, and prevents the casserole from being rubbery. 
  • Salt and Black Pepper: Enhance and balance flavors so the casserole doesn’t taste flat.
  • Cheddar Cheese: Melts into creamy pockets, adds bold cheesy flavor, and helps bind ingredients together.
  • Dried Oregano: Brings a subtle herby aroma and Mediterranean flavor to complement ham and mushrooms. 
  • Fresh Spinach: Adds freshness, nutrients, and a pop of color; balances the richness with a mild, earthy taste.

How to Make Ham and Cheese Breakfast Casserole

  1. Prep: Preheat the oven and grease a casserole dish.
  2. Sauté: Heat a skillet pan over medium heat and add the butter or oil, then add the mushrooms and cook without stirring until browned. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
  3. Beat: Beat the eggs and milk in a large bowl with a whisk. Season with about 1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper to taste. 
  4. Combine: Add in the ham, mushrooms, cheese, oregano and spinach to the egg mixture. Stir to combine.
  5. Bake: Pour into the prepared baking dish and bake until a knife inserted into the middle comes out clean.

Bacon, Egg & Cheese Breakfast Croissant Sandwiches

Maybe I shouldn't call these, Killer Maple Mustard Croissant Breakfast Sandwiches. They aren't healthy, but they are the best breakfast sandwich ever.

These breakfast croissant sandwiches are everything a savory breakfast lover dreams of! A flaky croissant, crispy bacon, juicy sausage, fluffy eggs, melted cheese, and a killer maple mustard sauce that pulls it all together. It’s not exactly a health food, but they are everything you’ve ever wanted (and more)!

Watch How This Breakfast Sandwich is Made…

Not long ago, we were visiting our friends Dave and Sarah in Colorado, and they casually mentioned we had to try our go-to favorite breakfast sandwiches on croissants with mustard and maple sauce. That was all I needed to hear. No recipe, no explanation. I was sold! Oh, and let me tell you: it’s that sweet, tangy maple mustard sauce that takes this croissant sandwich from good to unforgettable. You may just want to drench everything in it.

Are you a sweet or savory breakfast person? Both are so dang good, and it really depends on the day for me. Some days you just want some fluffy melt-in-your-mouth pancakes with buttermilk syrup, and other days you want something that’s going to stick to your ribs and pump you full of protein. If I go savory, I want it big and hearty and full of meat, cheese, and eggs. This breakfast sandwich recipe is just that.

What You’ll Need To Recreate This Breakfast Croissant Sandwich:

After trying this sandwich, you’ll never want a McDonald’s Egg McMuffin ever again. Seriously, they’ll be ruined. Here’s what you’ll need for this life-changing sandwich:

  • Bacon: Crispy, smoky strips that add crunch and a salty punch to every bite.
  • Maple Breakfast Sausage: Sweet and savory sausage that brings warmth and heartiness to the sandwich.

Creamy cottage cheese topped with juicy, sweet peaches, plenty of fresh mint, and a drizzle of honey is about to become your new favorite thing. Please, please, please, can peach season last just a little longer?

Peaches with Cottage Cheese

The mint and the drizzle of honey are transformative here with the cottage cheese and peaches. I’m soooo hooked on mint, friends. I’ve been making extra trips to the grocery store just to make sure I don’t run out of mint. (That’s not a joke, my friends. I have a slight mint addiction going on here.)

And can we talk for just a quick moment about the awesomeness of local, small batch honey? I met Leah Latshaw at my gym a couple of years ago. Her family produces the Latshaw Apiaries honey that I’ve bought countless times in local shops and at the farmer’s market.

I love all of their whipped honey varieties, and Latshaw’s plain honey is truly the tastiest, most flavorful honey I’ve ever bought. If you’re near the Granville Farmer’s Market or any of the local shops where the honey is sold, I can’t recommend it highly enough. We love it.

Cottage Cheese with Peaches

I know that cottage cheese is having a whole moment and I’m here for some of it. That said, cottage cheese eaten as actual cottage cheese is forever going to be my favorite – now that it’s something I truly enjoy eating!

Cottage cheese on the internet right now reminds me of a few years ago, when cauliflower was being added to just about everything and substitutions were rampant in everything from rice to pizza to cheese dips and sauces.

Cottage cheese + sweet, juicy peaches + a sprinkle of fresh mint + a drizzle of honey = an absolutely fantastic and irresistible breakfast, snack, lunch, or dinner for this girl. Depending on my mood, I might pair it with some
