Light & Fluffy High-Protein Smoked Salmon Egg Casserole Recipe (9 Ingredients)
Prep Time: 15 Min Cook Time: 45 Min Total Time: 1 Hour
Ingredients
1 1/2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
3/4 cup red bell pepper, diced
1/2 cup yellow onion, diced
5 ounces fresh baby spinach
12 medium eggs
2 cups cottage cheese
1 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
8 ounces cold-smoked, wild-caught sockeye salmon, diced
Instructions
To a large skillet or sauté pan with sides over medium heat, add the olive oil, onions and peppers. Sauté until crisp tender, about 3 minutes. Add the spinach and sauté until wilted, about 1 minute. Remove from heat.
Place the eggs and cottage cheese in a blender and whip until smooth, about 30 seconds.
Pour the cottage cheese mixture into a medium mixing bowl. Add the mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses. Stir to combine.
Add the vegetable mixture to the cheese mixture. Season with salt and pepper, to taste, if desired. Stir to combine.
Fold in the smoked salmon until incorporated.
Pour the mixture into a baking pan or casserole dish (see Recipe Notes) that's been sprayed with cooking spray.
Bake in a preheated 350-degree F oven for 30 to 40 minutes, or until the casserole is cooked through and golden. Allow to cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
Notes
I used my medium-sized Le Creuset casserole dish, which measures 10x8 inches.
I used a red bell pepper, but you can use any color bell pepper you prefer.
I used cold-smoked, wild-caught sockeye salmon, but you can use your favorite smoked salmon.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator or freezer.
