If you’ve followed my blog for a while you might know that I already have a recipe for Broccoli Cheese Breakfast Casserole on the blog. And I probably had that recipe in mind when I improvised earlier this year and made an extra-cheesy broccoli cheese breakfast casserole for houseguests.
But the extra cheesy version was such a hit, and after I’d made it for a second set of houseguests I decided that Broccoli and Three Cheese Keto Breakfast Casserole was a recipe that had to be shared! So I made it again just for myself and snapped some photos.
And every time I ate the leftovers, I thought about what a great idea it was to combine broccoli, eggs, Monterey Jack Cheese, Feta Cheese, and Parmesan Cheese into a cheesy breakfast treat that just happens to be perfect for Keto diets. Of course, if you’re someone who doesn’t love a lot of cheese, just use the amount of cheese you prefer!
And it’s probably obvious that I love cheese, and I ate the leftovers of this for days and days and thoroughly enjoyed it every time!

Low-Carb Diet / Low-Glycemic Diet / South Beach Diet Suggestions:
Broccoli and Three Cheese Keto Breakfast Casserole is a great dish for low-carb diet or Keto diet plans, but the recipe as written would be too high in fat for the original South Beach Diet. You could make a version that would be South Beach Diet approved by using reduced-fat cheeses.

I made this last night, sooooo good and super easy. I also added a bit of fresh lemon juice to the broccoli. Will definitely be making again. Thanks, Kaylyn.
So glad you enjoyed it; thanks for taking time to let me know.
We love this! ย We had cauliflower on hand so roasted it and used that. Second batch we added bacon bits. Its just so versatile! Thank you!
So glad you are loving it. Thanks for taking time to let me know!
Can you recommend a sub for the feta? That would work? No bleu cheese either. Looks delish and wanting to try.
You could use a mild crumbly Mexican cheese like Queso Fresco, but I’d probably just use a bit more of the other two types of cheese.
Love this site! Follow on FB! ย Especially love that I can click and print recipe with your print button and it is clean page without a bunch of stuff not needed. ย Like that you have links as well. I just followed a link to a spice I had never used before. ย Thank you for helping us keep it low carb! Looking forward to trying this recipe.
Thanks for the nice feedback. For me a lot of recipes sites have annoying extras, so I try hard to make my site work with just the basics that people really want or that will be helpful for them.
Thanks for sharing this. ย I love it, and have it for my breakfast on alternate days with keto granola. I cut into portions. Freeze them , then grab one the night before to de-frost overnight, a minute in the microwave it the morning and voila ย an easy, tasty breakfast!ย
So glad you are enjoying it!
