Oh my lawd, it’s already Wednesday. My life has been taken over with appointments and late night baseball games. No, I will not tell you which team I am cheering for. Mostly because I don’t cheer for teams, but also because sports teams make people say rude things. Like “I thought you were a great person until I found out you were a _______ fan.” Like, what? That’s probably one of the dumbest things you can say. Same reason I don’t talk about religion or politics on my website. You want someone to get real d*ck head opinionated on ya, talk about sports, Obama or the God you pray to. Not touching it. No way, no how. I have better things to talk about. Like puppies. And new restaurants.
Speaking of new restaurants, I’m trying out a few this week. You see, sometimes you get in a rut when it comes to creating recipes. Ok, wait, sometimes I get in a rut. I see other food bloggers who never run out of ideas and I just don’t get it. Because I get in random ruts all the time. And since I came up with around 66 recipes for my latest project in a little over two weeks, I need to find some inspiration. That’s where restaurants come into play. Denver is FULL with awesome restaurants. They are everywhere. Including Boulder. So I’m heading to Boulder today to try out a new paleo restaurant then trying another restaurant tomorrow in the Baker neighborhood. I’m guessing I’ll also be purchasing food somewhere on Halloween. I know that’s a lot of money to spend on food in a week, but I need ideas people. I need some help with flavor combinations or a meat that I haven’t tried cooking myself. Wish me luck.
I wish it could stay fall forever here in CO. Since I leave this weekend for Pittsburgh, I’m going to miss another week and a half here in CO. I just know that when I get back, there will probably be snow on the ground. Oh the sadness. I’m ok with snow, especially since we still live in an apartment so we don’t have to shovel, but I’m not really into the whole cold thing. That’s why I buy myself a new winter coat every year. It’s my way of developing a positive reinforcement about living in a snowy state. I don’t think reinforcement is the right word, but you get what I’m going for. A new coat or jacket makes winter worth it. And boots. Obviously. If you saw my instagram post about rearranging my closet, you know I have a brown boot obsession.
Ok, I can’t talk anymore, I have restaurants to eat at, baseball games to watch (meaning look at instagram 96% of the time), and political commercials to despise. Is it election day yet so those d*ck head commercials can end?? I swear, those commercials teach children to talk sh*t about each other. Crap, I started talking about politics, I gotta knock that sh*t off. Kbye!

This casserole was incredible! Thanks for sharing!
glad you liked it, Jason!
Can I put this together the night before, and then bake it in the morning? Thank you for all that you do!
i would mix the eggs last minute before you bake it
I made this a couple of weeks ago and it was SO GOOD. I love the flavor combo.. it makes a ton of food too so you will have leftovers. Definitely a must try!
This is an awesome recipe. I added broccoli and Meat & Potato Seasoning from Primal Palate, and Holy WOW. I am thinking about hiding the rest from my husband…
lol that’s awesome!! glad you loved it!!
Did you really use 24 oz of sausage with 10 eggs? I had 10 oz of previously cooked pork sausage + 10 eggs and it has a lot of meat! It is fantastico, BTW…
haha i wouldn’t lie to you about how much i used…
I just have to say that I first made this when I did my first stint at Paleo for our gym nutrition challenge. That was more than two years ago. I tasted it and was amazed that something with just pure ingredients could be so sweet and savory at the same time. It literally was the one thing that made eating paleo a sinch. I also thought all egg bakes were probably just as good – WRONG. I make this for our breakfast potlucks at work, when friends come in town and usually on a weekly basis for myself in the mornings and it never gets old. Literally everyone loves it!!
I took a risk and made this for an office party! Everyone loved it and asked for recipe, so that’s about as good as you can get! I used coconut oil on the potatoes and Jenny-O turkey breakfast sausage. I cut the spinach in half because it looked like a salad on top :). This is a great twist for a breakfast casserole, and I will definitely add it to my normal rotations. Thank you so much for sharing it!!!!
I just made this with a couple changes and it was terrific! I used 1/2 ground pork and 1/2 ground turkey, added tbl. Oregano, some bell pepper and substituted 3 quartered and sliced zucchini instead of sweet potato. I am on a strict diet and this made my diet extremely satisfying with only 325 calories per serving. Thanks!
