Some of you may think I have lost my mind when you see the title of this week’s recipe. However, my family has always enjoyed a breakfast for dinner occasionally. Maybe it is because we are always rushed in the morning and a quick bowl of cereal usually suffices for the beginning meal of the day. Dinner time is sometimes better to enjoy this type of meal.
Holidays and weekends are also a good time to try this casserole for a brunch as well. It is so handy to make up the night before. After sleeping late, put it in the oven and your meal will be ready shortly with very little effort!
Nutritionally, this casserole is full of good nutrition. Despite what you may have heard about eggs, they are really quite good for you. One egg provides 6 grams of protein which is 12% of the recommended daily allowance of protein. According to the American Egg Board, eggs provide all of the essential amino acids our bodies need. The high-quality protein in eggs helps us feel full longer and stay energized, which contributes to maintaining a healthy weight.
A recent survey of healthy adults conducted by the Egg Nutrition Center shows that nearly one out of four (24 percent) Americans still avoid eggs due to the fear of dietary cholesterol, even though 30 years of research has never linked egg consumption to heart disease. My advice regarding eggs is as with any food, moderation is the key to a healthy life style.
So, this week, get out of your comfort zone, and have Breakfast Casserole for your Dinner Tonight! Don't forget to try the yummy strawberry soup recipe as well. It is sure to be a family favorite.
