What's on everyone's grocery list for next week? Any special recipes? I love to have a good oatmeal breakfast w peanut butter and egg whites. I'm also thinking of making Jamie's delicious chili and maybe something sweet like protein bars to curb my sweet tooth. What about you?

This is my usual Breakfast that I love. Its an egg scramble casserole. I make it on Sundays and cut a piece for each morning and freeze the rest for the following weekend or week. I cut it up in 9 pieces. I eat this with 2 pieces of Turkey bacon and a piece of Ezekiel Bread and a half a teaspoon of Peanut Butter
Make Ahead Egg and Veggie Casserole
Ingredients
•4 cups of fresh broccoli florets
•1 cup mushrooms
•1 cup fresh spinach
•1 tsp garlic powder
•1/2 tbsp curry powder
•12 eggs
•12 egg whites (or 1 ½ cups of liquid egg whites)
•¼ cup milk of choice (almond milk or coconut milk will work, just nothing that’s sweetened)
•Salt and pepper to taste
•1/2 cup of grated part skim mozzarella
•1/4 cup parmesan cheese
•*OPTIONAL: I like to add 1/2 cup of Morningstar Farms chicken sausage, chopped up and spread throughout. I forgot it when photographing this recipe though. Whoops!
Directions:
Preheat oven to 375. Grease a 10×14 casserole dish.
Cut broccoli into small florets and steam for two minutes or until just tender. Meanwhile, put spinach and mushrooms in a food processor and pulse 3-4 times or until everything is chopped – do NOT over process or it will liquify. When broccoli is tender, toss all veggies with garlic powder, salt and curry powder. Set aside.
Combine eggs, egg whites, milk, and black pepper in a large bowl and whisk until all of the ingredients are well combined.
Layer seasoned broccoli on the bottom of the casserole dish and evenly sprinkle the cheese over the veggies. Pour the eggs over the vegetables and cheese and use a fork to make sure that the veggies are evenly distributed through out the eggs.
Bake for about 35 minutes or until the top is slightly browned and the eggs are cooked through.0 -

I love Jamie's carrot cake protein squares. They are great for breakfast or a snack. Use casein if possible for better texture. I might make them a different size than she does, because when I put the recipe into MFP, they come out to about 62? (or close) cals per square.
