Today I'm sharing an easy keto casserole perfect for breakfast meal prep.
Keto eggs and bacon are delicious, don't get me wrong, but please, for the love of all things keto make sure you spice it up a bit from time to time!
One of my favorite foods (other than bacon) is Italian sausage.
My favorite brand... Johnsonville.
Sure, I may be biased because I used to work as a vendor for them, but I have tasted other brands, and Jville has never been beaten!
This keto casserole is simple, and it's what I would call mild.
I love everything spicy, but my husband (who just joined me on keto) doesn't, so I had to keep that in mind when making this dish.
You have probably tried other keto breakfast casseroles before, but I'm pretty sure you will freaking love this one.
Seriously, if you don't love it, I will pay for your meal.
Just kidding! If you don't like this recipe, we have different tastes, which is fine with me.
We can't all be the same now, can we?
The awesome thing about making a keto casserole is that you can take it to any function, and no one will ever know you're "on a diet" or bringing "diet food."
I don't care what anyone thinks about my lifestyle, but it's amazing how differently people judge your food when they think you're on some crazy diet.
Who knows, maybe you'll have people raving about your dish, and you'll get a chance to explain how your lifestyle allows you to eat like this EVERY. SINGLE. DAY!
Oh, and one more thing. If you're not a fan of cauliflower, try this recipe anyway.
My husband hated cauliflower and told me he wouldn't like it no matter how well I hid it or covered it.
He thought it was onions in this recipe. For serious! He had no clue until I told him.
Of course, he had to salvage his pride and say that he knew it was cauliflower and it tasted "okay," but he's not kidding anyone.

I would love this except for all the egg whites. Why leave out the best part of the egg? Is that part of this keto diet? Where can I learn all about this diet?

Tiffanie says
Can u make this with turkey sausage instead? What would the counts be then? I can't eat pork. Thanks
ketosizeme says
Of course, you could! The carb counts would be the same because neither meat has carbs. The only thing that would change would be the fat content.
