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.
