Ingredients

  • 16 English muffins torn into 1-2-inch pieces
  • 1 lb. ground pork breakfast sausage
  • 1 large red bell pepper diced
  • ½ large white onion minced
  • 5 oz. fresh spinach
  • 4 oz. sun dried tomatoes chopped (the kind with olive oil in it)
  • 4 oz. goat cheese plus more for topping
  • 12 large eggs
  • ½ cup milk any kind (we used 2% milk)
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon pepper

Instructions

  • Spray a 9x13-inch casserole dish with non-stick cooking spray. Set aside. 
  • Heat a large skillet over medium/high heat and add the ground pork to the skillet pan. 
  • Break the sausage up into small pieces and let the sausage cook for 2-3 minutes. 
  • Add the red pepper, white onion, and spinach to the skillet and mix all the ingredients together. Cook all the ingredients together for an additional 5 minutes until the spinach begins to wilt and until the pork is cooked. Remove the skillet from the stove top. 
  • Add the English muffin pieces, pork, cooked veggies, and sun dried tomatoes to the greased casserole dish. Mix until combined. 
  • Dollop the goat cheese all over the casserole and then toss everything together.
  • In a large bowl, whisk the large eggs together. Add milk, salt, and pepper to the eggs and whisk until combined. 
  • Pour the egg mixture over the English muffin casserole and toss to combine everything together. Use your hands to press the ingredients into the egg mixture. 
  • Cover the casserole dish with tin foil and place it in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or (preferably) overnight. 
  • When the casserole is ready to bake, preheat the oven to 350ºF. 
  • Remove the casserole from the refrigerator and leave the casserole covered. Place it in the oven and bake for 50-60 minutes, uncovering the casserole after 45 minutes. 
  • Sprinkle fresh goat cheese on top of the casserole and place the casserole back into the oven for 3-4 minutes or until the goat cheese is melted. 
  • Remove the casserole from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before serving.
