Here is how you make Rise and Shine Casserole!:

(Drain off excess grease). In same pan add mushrooms, scallions, and spinach and continue to cook over medium heat until mushrooms are tender. Set aside.Add eggs, egg whites, milk, onion powder, and dijon mustard into a blender or food processor and blend for 30 seconds. (This adds the air into the eggs and will make the casserole fluffy!).In a bowl combine eggs mixture, sausage mixture, bread cubes, and cheese and quickly stir.Place mixture into a greased baking dish (glass 9x15 works well). Sprinkle paprika on top. Bake for 35-45 minutes. The casserole should become lightly brown on top and the mixture should have completely set.Let stand for 5 minutes before cutting to serve. Makes 8 (large and satisfying!) servings. Pair with orange or apple slices or juice to get your fruit servining in! And I always, alway serve breakfast with a big mug of hot black coffee.Number of Servings: 8Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user EDHOUCK1315.
