Veggie Egg Bake with Turkey Bacon tips…

Follow the tips below for the best Broccoli Cheddar Egg Bake experience!

  • Grease your dish: This egg bake will most definitely stick to your baking dish if you do not. And let’s be honest … there’s not much worse then egg stuck on a baking dish or pan!
  • Chop your broccoli small: I simply prefer my broccoli small in this recipe. I don’t like getting a big chunk of broccoli in my breakfast casserole, but if you don’t mind … chop to whatever size you’d like!

  • Normal or no bacon: Feel free to use regular pork bacon instead of turkey … or just leave the meat out in total. Whatever you prefer!
  • Cheese, cheese, cheese: Swap out the cheddar cheese for your favorite – Swiss, parmesan, or mozzarella are all great options
