    Egg & Bacon Mini Casseroles

  • 1 package frozen chopped spinach, thawed

  • 4 slice 100% whole-wheat bread, cubed 10-ounce or 280-gram

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

  • 3 stalks green onion

  • 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder

  • 0.25 teaspoon salt

  • Black pepper to taste

  • 4 slices cooked bacon, chopped

  • 5 large eggs 50g each

  • 1.25 cup low-fat milk

Directions

  • Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Spray one 12-well muffin tin (or two 6-well muffin tins) with cooking oil spray, and set aside.

  • Put thawed spinach into a mesh strainer, and squeeze out as much excess water as possible. Set spinach aside.

  • In a large mixing bowl, coat cubed bread with olive oil. Add spinach, cheese, green onions, garlic powder, salt, pepper and bacon. Toss the bread mixture until well combined. Divide the mixture evenly among the 12 muffin-tin wells.

  • In the same bowl, beat the eggs and stir in the milk. Pour the mixture over the bread in the muffin tin, trying your best to evenly divide the egg-and-milk mixture into each muffin well.

  • Bake the casseroles for 30–40 minutes, or until the bread on top is golden and crispy and the centers are set. Test by poking a skewer into one of the casseroles, and see if it comes out clean.

  • Allow casseroles to cool before serving.
