    Clarification please?

    Topic title says "need egg casserole recipe with "no" starch" Then inside you ask for an egg casserole recipe with potato or bread.

    Not sure what you want, but as far as I know, both bread and potato are major starches.

    If you mean no bread and potato, what I do is pretty simple. I spray cooking spray on the bottom of a casserole dish. I layer the bottom with shredded cheese. I beat some eggs with salt and pepper or whatever seasoning (6-8 eggs, probably, for a 9x13 dish). I beat in a tad more cheese. I add in turkey sausage crumbles. You could do any meat/veg combo you want here. I bake at 350 until almost set. Then, I layer the top with more cheese and bake until melted. You can also broil at the end for 1-2 minutes for a nice browned topping.

    I made an awesome quiche yesterday that would be easy to make crustless.

    8 eggs
    2 tomatoes diced
    1 C mozzerella cheese (shredded)
    1/4C diced onion
    10 basil leaves chopped
    Salt and Pepper

    Place tomatoes and cheese in bottom of pan (I used a 9" pie pan). Sautee onion until carmelized (about 20-30 mins), whisk eggs with carmelized onion basil and salt and pepper. Pour over tomatoes and cheese and bake in 350 degree oven for 30-40 minutes (or until eggs set).

    Serves 8 ( I made this with a 9" pie crust- it was only 20g carbs per serving- but it would be simple to do it without the crust, as a frittata or or even in muffin tins).

    I would look into quiche recipes. I think you can make them without potato or bread. And they're really versatile, you can put whatever veggies you like. I like making mine with turkey sausage, mushrooms, onion, and cheese.

    spray your cupcake tin with pam,
    you can line it with thinly sliced ham or turkey, add beaten eggs or egg whites,
    whatever you would like in your omelete
    any veggies you like, I like cooked mushrooms and spinach with mozzerrela cheese.
    or any other cheese you like, I prefer 2 % fat content.
    you can make all same or different.
    bake 350 20 mins.
    taste great nuked for work bkfst.
    yummy

    Use any quiche recipe you like, just don't do a crust.

    Basic crustless quiche

    Mix together in bowl:
    6 large eggs, lightly beaten
    1 1/4 cup cream, milk, or half and half
    1/4 tsp salt
    1/4 tsp sugar
    1/8 tsp cayenne pepper
    1/3 cup grated onion

    Stir into above mixture or layer in greased pie plate:
    4 oz grated cheese (I use 1 oz asiago and 3 oz swiss)

    and your choice of other ingredients:

    1/3-1/2 cup bacon, crumbled

    1 cup steamed broccoli (use with cheddar cheese)

    1/2 cup sauteed fresh or canned mushrooms, 1/4 cup sauteed red pepper, 1/2 cup cooked crumbled sausage

    Arrange/pour all into greased pie plate. Bake at 425F for 15 minutes, reduce oven temp to 300F, and bake an additional 25-30 minutes until center is set and edges are lightly browned. Keeps in the refrig for a week, warm a slice 45-60 seconds in the microwave.

    We make a yummy Confetti Corn Pudding that's good. Also, you can make any quiche recipe without the crust.

    My breakfast nearly every morning is egg whites with pretty much any veggie I have on hand. I always have mushrooms and onions, usually peppers, sometimes spinach and asparagus. I cook these veggies in a good-sized batch in the oven with a spritz of olive oil and some sea salt, and have them ready to throw into my breakfast or whatever. If I'm being daring, I'll add some Parmesan cheese! You could do a larger version of that maybe?
