Free Range Egg Casserole (dairy-free, not vegan) with Malt Vingegar Roasted New Potatoes

Hubby's birthday is today!

He woke up to breakfast ready to go and a new coffee to try out.  The least I could do for the man who gets up every day and gets our 2 yr. old ready - all while trying to get ready for work himself, just so I can sleep in an extra minute or two!  :)

(Thanks to my mother in law for making a great whole wheat walnut bread - it went into the casserole to make breakfast extra special)


Egg Casserole

6-8 Eggs - We buy directly from local farmers at the Raleigh Farmers Market
1/2 c. Non-Dairy milk of choice, I used unsweetened almond milk
5 Morningstar Veggie Sausage Patties, microwaved and then cut into small cubes
1 c. Broccoli (or you could sub in any veggie like spinach, peppers etc.), finely chopped (I used the Ninja)
2 slices of Bread, in large cubes
Spices of choice - Salt, Pepper, Garlic Powder etc.

Method:

Whisk together egg, milk and spices
Fold in broccoli

Spray a round Pyrex with cooking spray
Lay down bread cubes
Top with veggie sausage

Pour egg/broccoli mixture over bread/sausage

Bake at 350 for 25-30 min.

Roasted Vinegar New Potatoes

2 handfuls of small new potatoes cut in half or quartered  (or you can use any potato, cubed into 1" cubes)
4 TBSP Olive Oil
4 TBSP Malt Vinegar
Salt, Pepper

In a bowl, combine cut potatoes with vinegar, oil and spices
Let sit a few minutes to soak up the vinegar

Bake at 400 in a small glass Pyrex for 30 min., stir to break up any sticking and bake again for 10-15 more minutes until potatoes are nicely browned.
