It’s Labor Day weekend in the U.S. and when it’s a long weekend and you’re spending it at home, don’t you love the way that extra day gives you a chance to get caught up on things you sometimes don’t have time for? And this weekend I’m thinking about Weekend Food Prep, and this Broccoli, Mushrooms, Ham, and Cheddar Baked with Eggs is the perfect low-carb and Keto breakfast recipe to make on the weekend and have leftovers to eat for a few days! 

I created the Weekend Food Prep category on the blog because of my own fondness for cooking ahead and having food in the fridge to pull out for a quick meal. That’s a habit I acquired when I was teaching school and had to plan ahead for lunches. (I didn’t want to eat the school lunch food and there was no time to go out!)

Now that I’m a full-time blogger working at home, I’m not always as good about cooking ahead on the weekend, but it’s something I’m always trying to improve on! And nothing helps me stay on track with my carb-conscious eating like having tasty food in the fridge that’s ready to eat.

What ingredients do you need for this recipe?

• mushrooms

• broccoli florets
• diced ham
• grated cheddar cheese
• eggs
• Spike Seasoning (affiliate link) or other all-purpose seasoning blend
• fresh ground black pepper to taste

What is an Egg Bake?

Breakfast dishes like Broccoli, Mushrooms, Ham, and Cheddar Baked with Eggs are what I call Egg Bakes, and those recipes have a lot of veggies, meat, or cheese with just enough egg to hold it together. That makes them a little different from my other breakfast casseroles that have more egg. And this recipe makes 8 servings and keeps in the fridge for more than a week, so hopefully you’ll be able to have enough for a few breakfasts!

How to make Broccoli, Mushrooms, Ham, and Cheddar Baked with Eggs:

(This is only a summary of the steps for the recipe; please scroll down for complete printable recipe. Or if you use the JUMP TO RECIPE link at the top of the page, it will take you directly to the complete recipe.)

1. Brown a pound of sliced mushrooms in a small amount of olive oil.  (I used pre-sliced mushrooms, which made it quick.)
2. I cut the broccoli into pieces that were quite small, then microwaved the broccoli for just a couple of minutes.
3. Dice enough ham to make about 2 cups of small ham cubes.
4. Measure out two cups of grated cheddar cheese.
5. Whisk 14 eggs until whites and yolks are completely combined.
6. Spray a large 10″ x 14″ glass baking dish with non-stick spray; then layer the barely cooked mushrooms and broccoli.
7. Then put the diced ham and grated cheese over the vegetables.
8. Season with some fresh ground pepper and a little Spike Seasoning (affiliate link) or your favorite seasoning blend to use on eggs.
9. Pour eggs over, then take a fork and gently stir so the ingredients are all combined and coated with egg.
10. I save a little cheese to sprinkle on right before it goes in the oven. 
11. Bake about 40 minutes, or until the eggs are all set and the egg bake is just starting to brown on top.
12. Serve hot.
13. I loved this with a dollop of low-fat sour cream on top.

Broccoli, Mushrooms, Ham, and Cheddar Baked with Eggs

Prep Time 20 minutes

Cook Time 45 minutes

Total Time 1 hour 5 minutes

There are so many great flavors in this Broccoli, Mushrooms, Ham, and Cheddar Baked with Eggs, and this is a perfect breakfast option for Weekend Food Prep!

Ingredients

• 1 lb. mushrooms, sliced
• 1 T olive oil
• 4 cups broccoli florets, cut into fairly small pieces
• 2 cups diced ham, cut into small cubes
• 2 cups grated cheddar cheese
• 14 eggs, beaten so whites and yolks are well-combined
• 1-2 tsp. Spike Seasoning (see notes)
• fresh ground black pepper to taste

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 375F/190C.
2. Spray a 10″ x 14″ glass baking dish with nonstick spray.
3. Heat olive oil in large frying pan, then cook the sliced mushrooms over medium-high heat until they’re slightly browned and liquid has evaporated, about 8 minutes.
4. While mushrooms cook, chop broccoli into small florets. Put broccoli into a glass measuring cup, cover with cling-wrap, and microwave just until broccoli barely starts to cook, about 1-2 minutes. (You can also cook the broccoli 2-3 minutes in boiling water and then drain well if you prefer that method.)
5. Drain broccoli into a colander placed in the sink, and let drain while you chop the ham and measure the grated cheese.
6. In baking dish layer the cooked mushrooms, barely-cooked broccoli, diced ham, and grated cheese. (I save a little cheese to sprinkle on right before it goes in the oven.)
7. Season with fresh-ground black pepper and Spike Seasoning (or your favorite seasoning blend to use on eggs).
8. Beat the eggs until whites and yolks are well-combined, then pour eggs over the broccoli-mushroom mixture.
9. Use a fork to gently stir until all the broccoli, mushrooms, ham, and cheese are coated with egg. (It may look like you need more egg, but trust me on this!)
10. Bake 40-45 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the top of the egg bake is slightly browned.
11. Serve hot, topped with a dollop of sour cream if desired.
12. I wouldn’t freeze this, but you can bake it on the weekend and keep in the fridge for breakfasts all through the week.
13. Reheat in the microwave for only 1-2 minutes. or heat for a few minutes in a frying pan on the stove.

Notes

I love Spike Seasoning (affiliate link) but you can use any all-purpose seasoning that's good with eggs.
