What You Need to Make an Italian Egg Bake
(ideal ingredients for a 1½ quart baking dish)

7 EGGS
8-10 oz SPINACH
1 med ONION (chopped)
SUN DRIED TOMATOES (chopped) …smoked sun dried tomatoes are my favorite!
6-10 cloves GARLIC (minced)
½ tsp dried ITALIAN SEASONING
1 cup shredded PARMESAN
or ROMANO CHEESE
½ cup MILK or YOGURT
SALT and PEPPER and
seasonings to taste, like:
garlic powder
onion powder
chili powder
paprika
…add others, or leave some of
these out.
OIL for sauteing

How to Make an Italian Egg Bake Casserole

In a large bowl, crack the eggs, add milk and dried Italian seasonings, and whisk well. Set bowl aside.
Heat oil in a skillet on medium high heat.
Into the skillet add the onion, garlic, and sundried tomatoes and saute 4-5 minutes.
Add in the seasoning and continue sauteing 3-4 minutes.
Add in spinach. Stir until spinach wilts and cooks down, which will happen quickly.
Lightly spray a 1½ quart baking dish and line the bottom with freshly shredded Romano or Parmesan cheese.
You don’t need a lot of cheese, line the bottom of the dish and whatever is left reserve to melt on top of the dish later.
Remove the sauteed skillet ingredients and spread them evenly over the cheese layer.
Gently pour over the whisked egg and milk.
Slide the baking dish into an oven preheated to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and bake about 20 minutes or until the egg is firm.
Remove from the oven. If desired, top with more shredded cheese and return dish to the oven for about 5 more minutes.

And that’s all there is to this egg casserole.
An Italian egg bake tastes great right out of the oven, but will taste even better the next day.
Serve hot or cold. I actually prefer it cold or at room temperature, so this egg bake recipe makes a great snack,
or perfect breakfast, lunch, or dinner; or even brunch, if you’re one of those kinda people.
