I try not to consume eggs regularly. They make me bloat. But that’s because my body is an asshole and is incredibly sensitive. You wouldn’t think my body would be like most of the guys I’ve dated. Kidding. I don’t date assholes. Nor do I really date. I like food more than dating. Food doesn’t have emotions. Nor do I. Therefore, we get alone well. Anyways, have any of you dealt with this issue? With the eggs, not the dudes? Not sure? Look down. Are you bloated? Can you see your goods? Did you consume eggs this morning? That’s how I figured it out. Easy peasy, lemon squeezy.
Now that we’ve talked about my digestive issues, let’s chat about the actual meal. I decided to make this because I really never make breakfast that is worthy of blogging about. I almost always eat leftovers for breakfast so that means I’m usually consuming some kind of random reheated meat and a butt load of fat. So I thought it would be nice to make some breakfast for my roommate (the Laursters) because she’s so awesome. Who doesn’t love cooking for friends? Assholes, that’s who. I fall under the category far too often. Damn.
Paleo Savory Breakfast Casserole
- Yield: 6-9 1x
Ingredients
- 12 eggs, whisked
- 1lb chorizo, cooked and broken into pieces
- 1 sweet potato, shredded
- 1/2 yellow onion, diced
- 2 tablespoons hot sauce (I used Siracha)
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon pepper
Instructions
- Start things off right by preheating your oven to 375 degrees.
- First you’ll want to get your chorizo (or other choice of meat) cooking. So add your chorizo to a hot skillet and let cook until it begins to crumble.
- While the meat is cooking, dice up your onion and shred your sweet potato. I shredded mine by throwing it in a food processor, using the shredding attachment. Genius.
- Now, beat those eggs of yours in a large bowl.
- Add the cooked meat, onion, and sweet potato to the bowl with the whisked eggs. Then add the rest of your ingredients and mix all together.
- Grease an 8×8 baking dish and add your egg mixture to it.
- Cook for 25-30 minutes until the eggs aren’t runny. The middle takes a bit longer so just be patient.
- Let sit for 10+ minutes before consuming.
- Then consume.

I love choirzo and for breakfast. Have you tried it before with carrots and red peppers? It's like they're made for each other.
I added red pepper and celery (can’t believe I forgot the hot sauce – next time – lol). This is the BEST breakfast casserole I have EVER had. Highly recommended.
Smart! Love it Colleen!
I do have that same problem . . . with dudes, not with eggs. I'm convinced that boyfriends sabotage healthy diet and exercise routines with their stupid insecurities because they're afraid you'll leave them for Dorian Yates. "You don't need to go to the gym, stay here and have a beer with me instead." And next thing you know, you're walking around in his sweatpants because your jeans don't fit you.
I was looking for something like this that I can have for breakfast throughout the week. Stupid easy to make and keeps really well to reheat later. I’ve made this a few times and found that my favorite combo is a different meat ( ground pork ) and to skip out on the hot sauce. Thanks Juli !!!
Yay Peter!! You’re just a cooking machine nowadays!
I’m so glad I saw a post about your blog! This is super yummy!! I make it on Sunday and bring it to work all week long. I did make it again with sausage and broccoli .. broccoli is cheap.
Glad you like it lora!!!
Juli, I just made this for breakfast this week and it is really tasty! I used pork breakfast sausage instead of chorizo, Frank’s hot sauce and it took about 45 minutes in a 8×8 pan. I couldn’t wait until the morning so I ate a really late dinner. Worth it!!
I’m looking forward to trying more of your recipes! I’m making the Mexican Hash and Almond Flour Waffles this weekend.
Thank you!

Hope you like them all Jenna!!
Shoot – forgot to rate it. This recipes gets a five because it’s tasty, easy and healthy 🙂
I have the same wreched affliction – Big time sensitivity to eggs. Only thing is they don’t only bloat me… Yeah. I’ll leave it at that.
Ever tried substituting eggs with arrowroot in recipes that call for eggs to bind the ingredients? I used 1tbs arrowroot powder & 2 tbs water for each egg required. I did it with your (FLIPPIN’ DELICIOUS) sweet potato brownies and this recipe too; they came out really well! The brownies just needed a little more baking powder to add the fluff that egg gives.
Anyway, I’m in love with this site! Thanks so much, and please keep these slammin’ recipes coming!
Thanks so much for the tip!!!
I just finished making it…really, just. I’m waiting the 10 minutes, which is killing me…..tik tok.
Whatd you think!?
Shredded yam happiness…and I can’t wait to try it again, adding this or that.
Unrelated to the casserole, I bought a food processor because of your website. I had to try some of these recipes and have NOT been disappointed.
I haven’t tried coconut oil yet (though I bought it).
Do it Bea, try that coconut oil. It’s wonderful!
What a breeze to make with my handy processor. Make it with pork sausage cake wait to try another varieties suggested. Thank you.
Thank you SO much for this recipe!!! This is our first holiday since switching to a Paleo lifestyle. I was worried my family would be crushed by the lack of homemade cinnamon rolls. I almost caved in and made them but decided to try this recipe instead. No one even mentioned the rolls and they raved about this casserole! You saved Easter. 😉
Good for you for not caving in. Cinnamon rolls are a hard thing to lose 🙁
A quick question before I try this: Is the sweet potato pre-cooked or shredded raw.
I can’t wait to try this out.
shredded raw
