Veggie Ham Egg and Cheese Bake

For an easy brunch recipe to serve for a large gathering, try this wonderful savory egg dish; made with part whole eggs, part whites, mushrooms, broccoli, bell peppers, scallions, tomatoes, ham and cheese.

You can modify this however you wish – swap the ham for lean sausage or leave it out. Swap the cheddar for mozzarella or leave it out for dairy-free. As for the vegetables, use whatever you prefer, no rules here!

My sister in law Denise recently made something very similar to this at a brunch she hosted and I knew I wanted to remake it (just a bit lighter). Her recipe called for flour but I tested it without and it worked fine, plus I swapped some of the eggs for egg whites, added a lot more veggies and use reduced fat cheese. This turned out wonderful, and you can prep it ahead and bake when your guests arrive. Enjoy!

Ingredients:

  • olive oil spray
  • 2 cups shredded reduced fat sharp cheddar (for gf, check labels)
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/3 cup sliced scallions
  • 5 oz sliced shiitake mushrooms
  • 1/2 cup chopped red bell pepper
  • 7 oz finely diced lean ham steak
  • 3/4 cup diced tomatoes, seeded
  • 1 cup finely chopped broccoli florets
  • 7 large whole eggs
  • 5 large egg whites
  • 1/4 cup fat free milk
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/4 tsp ground black pepper

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 375°F. Spray a 9 x 13 baking dish with oil.

Place 1 cup of cheese into the baking dish.

Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat; add scallions, mushrooms and red pepper and saute until vegetables are tender, about 5 to 6 minutes. Add the tomatoes and cook 2 – 3 minutes. Add the ham and broccoli and remove from heat. Spread evenly over the cheese mixture.

In a large bowl combine the eggs, egg whites, milk, salt and pepper and whisk well. Slowly pour over the vegetables in the baking dish and top with remaining cheese.

Bake until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean, 32 to 35 minutes. Let stand 8 to 10 minutes before cutting into 12 pieces.
