turkey & egg breakfast casserole

This is one of my easy go-to healthy breakfast recipes. The Turkey Egg Breakfast Casserole is also a family favorite and falls under the “paleo” category.

This Turkey Egg Breakfast Casserole is pretty much on an every other week rotation in our family and I can assure you there have been many mornings I’ve had one eye open while dozing with the other as I prepared this dish. And here’s the punchline for the win: it’s healthy, I mean really healthy.

Did I mention it’s also easy to prepare? Well, it is so if I’ve sold you on making this dish for breakfast tomorrow then keep reading for the recipe…

Just as I was layering the sweet potatoes in the baking dish she said “Chase (that’s my brother) doesn’t like sweet potatoes so this should be interesting.” Now I know there are many people out there who don’t like sweet potatoes, my neighbors included, but it still blows my mind every time I hear an aversion to the root vegetable.

Had it been just about anyone else other than my brother I’d have happily lined only half the dish, but my initial sisterly thought was that he could deal with it. Once my sister-in-law said to leave them in and see what happens I accepted the challenge.

I’m sure he knew something was up as the two of us were staring him down as he took his first bite, but to everyone’s surprise (his being delayed cause he was clueless about the potatoes until we told him) he loved it!! He was pleasantly shocked and actually said he didn’t mind them at all

I absolutely love when dishes turn out this way and someone ends up enjoying something they never thought they could whether it’s a child or an adult. If there is any hesitation on your end about trying this dish I would say for you to go ahead and take a chance and try it out. You might find yourself pleasantly surprised.
