Though if I'd had some I would have added Italian sausage and celery.
The plan was to check out "leftover turkey" recipes. I found this Easy Crockpot Breakfast Pie from PaleoOMG.com and I thought....7hrs wait time? LOL Can't I just make it right now? Eat it in 30?
And I don't have yams on hand. I do have riced cauliflower. But can I make something similar with riced cauliflower? (my primal newbie-ness is showing) So I Google cauliflower-rice-casserole and came up with a page full at Yummly.com
Yes I can make something similar with riced cauliflower. I decide to wing it based loosely on my brief research scan of two recipes. HA
The ingredients amounts are eyeballed to my casserole dish (what can I fit in?)
Time in Kitchen: 15min
Ingredients:
- leftover Turkey, cubed/diced etc, 3 cups
- approx 4 cups riced cauliflower, cooked
- a package of mushrooms, cooked (optional, or use as much as you want)
- 1 onion (I used a large sweet onion because I prefer them)
- butter or fat for cooking mushrooms & onions and other veggies like celery if you have it
- shredded cheese (couple of handfuls for topping, cheddar or moz mix)
Liquids & spice: (about 2 cups all in)
- 4-6 eggs (you make the call)
- milk or a mix of cream and milk
- 2 tsp basil
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1-2 tsp thyme as you prefer
- 1/4 -1/2 tsp salt
preheat oven 350
(I cooked this in my toaster oven on convection bake setting, at 350, for 35 minutes, until cheese was golden!)
- Cook riced cauliflower in a covered bowl in microwave (4minutes veg setting)
- Toss fat & onions, mushrooms etc into skillet to cook as you prefer soft or crisp
- While everything is cooking crack your eggs into med bowl, add spices and milk/cream to make about 2 cups liquid.
- Spoon cauliflower into casserole dish, mix in turkey, and veggies, pour eggs/milk over all and mix gently. Pat flat with back of spoon. Spread Cheese over top. - optionally, could probably mix the cheese all in instead of layered on top)
So, everything is practically precooked and I just need to cook the eggs and melt the cheese.
Best served warm.
