It is no secret that I am in need for new breakfast recipes. I feel like I will come up with an amazing recipe, then after 4 weeks I’m in need of a change. My Low-Carb Bacon, Egg, and Spinach Casserole was a major hit! I did advance meal prep with that recipe for quite a few weeks. It made the perfect post-workout meal!

The truth is, even the best recipes can grow old after a while…especially if you are eating them every single day. I came up with the idea for this recipe with my Low-Carb Bacon, Egg, and Spinach Breakfast Casserole fresh in mind.
This dish is loaded with protein and packed with veggies. I have been on a huge veggies kick lately and added sun-dried tomatoes and spinach here.
The poached egg is perfect! The egg is what makes this a breakfast dish.

Because I am a self admitted bad cook, I never considered pasta for breakfast. This makes me drool. I am pinning it to remind myself to share with my wife to make it for us. Yum!

My favorite kitchen trick is to shove as many vegetables into a dish as possible. In the summer I like to put zucchini into everything. I also have lots of eggs, I’m going to have to try poaching some soon
