Low-Carb Swiss Chard, Mozzarella, and Feta Egg Bake

Whether you’re trying to lose weight or just trying to eat a healthy diet, you can never go wrong by eating more vegetables. A few years ago I realized one way to up your daily intake of veggies was by incorporating vegetables into breakfast dishes, and since then I’ve come up with lots of different breakfast ideas that involve vegetables.

You can use vegetables in breakfast casseroles or egg muffins, but lately I’ve been fond of a slightly different type of breakfast dish that I call an egg bake. This Swiss Chard, Mozzarella, and Feta Egg Bake has lots of Swiss chard with just enough egg to hold it together, and it’s a delicious way to use Swiss chard in a low-carb breakfast bake.

This is one of my easy Five Ingredients recipes, hope you enjoy! If you’re looking for easy recipes, there are a lot more Five Ingredients recipes on the blog. And check out my Salute to Swiss Chard for more Swiss Chard ideas!

How to Make Swiss Chard, Mozzarella, and Feta Egg Bake:

(Scroll down for complete printable recipe, including nutritional information.)

  1. Stack up the chard leaves and thickly slice them, then give them a good wash in the salad spinner if you have garden chard.
  2. Heat olive oil in a large frying pan, add the chard leaves all at once, and stir-fry until the chard is wilted and barely tender.
  3. Here’s how the chard looks after it cooks down. This only takes 2-3 minutes, so don’t overcook.
  4. Put the barely-wilted chard into a casserole dish that’s 8 inches by 11.5 inches or close to that size.
  5. Sprinkle with the mozzarella, crumbled Feta and some sliced green onion.
  6. Pour over 8 beaten eggs, seasoned with Spike Seasoning (affiliate link) if desired. I like to use a fork to gently “stir” so the eggs are well distributed.
  7. It will look like a lot of vegetables for the amount of egg, but trust me!
  8. Bake about 35 minutes at 375F/190C, or until the egg bake is set and barely starting to brown.
  9. Serve hot, with a dollop of sour cream if desired.

Swiss Chard, Mozzarella, and Feta Egg Bake
Yield: 6 servings

Swiss Chard, Mozzarella, and Feta Egg Bake

Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 35 minutes
Total Time 45 minutes

This Swiss Chard, Mozzarella, and Feta Egg Bake is a delicious way to start the day with a healthy serving of vegetables in a low-carb egg dish.

Ingredients

  • 8 oz. Swiss chard leaves, sliced into thick ribbons
  • 2 tsp. olive oil
  • 3/4 cup Mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup crumbled Feta cheese
  • 1/4 cup sliced green onions
  • 8 eggs, beaten
  • 1 tsp. Spike Seasoning (optional but recommended; see notes)
  • salt and fresh ground black pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375F/190C. Spray a 8 x 11.5 glass casserole dish with olive oil or non-stick spray.
  2. Cut stems off the chard leaves and discard stems. Stack up the leaves in a pile and cut the chard into ribbons about 1 inch wide.
  3. If your chard is from the garden, give it a good wash in the salad spinner and spin dry.
  4. Heat olive oil in a heavy non-stick frying pan, add the chard ribbons all at once, and cook while stirring until the chard has all wilted and slightly softened. This only takes about 2-3 minutes; the chard will finish cooking in the oven.
  5. Layer wilted chard, Mozzarella cheese, and Feta cheese in the bottom of the casserole dish and sprinkle with green onions.
  6. Beat the eggs with the Spike Seasoning (affiliate link), salt, and pepper and pour over the chard/cheese mixture.
  7. I take a fork and gently “stir” at this point to be sure all the chard/cheese mixture is coated with egg.
  8. Bake about 35 minutes, or until the egg bake is set and starting to lightly brown.
  9. Serve hot, with a dollop of sour cream if desired.

Notes

If you don't have Spike Seasoning you can substitute another all-purpose seasoning blend. This will keep in the fridge for at least a week and can be quickly reheated in the microwave. This recipe created by Kalyn.
