Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Easy Sweet Potato Egg Casserole
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Grease a 9×13-inch casserole dish with cooking oil or non-stick spray.
- In a Dutch oven, heat a tablespoon of avocado oil over medium heat and sauté onion, green pepper, and sweet potato cubes for about 8-9 minutes. Stir in minced garlic in the last minute.
- Spread the sautéed vegetable mixture evenly in the prepared casserole dish.
- Cook the turkey sausage in the Dutch oven until fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes, then mix into the vegetable layer in the casserole dish.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, fresh thyme, salt, pepper, and shredded cheese until smooth.
- Pour the egg mixture over the sausage and vegetable layer in the casserole dish and gently stir to combine.
- Bake for 40-45 minutes until the center is firm and golden on top. Cover loosely with aluminum foil if browning too quickly.
- Let the casserole cool for 15 minutes before slicing.
