Growing up in the Midwest, I am no stranger to dips and casseroles. I’ve lightened up two of my favorite dishes, egg casserole and spinach artichoke dip, to create a healthy, satisfying, and delicious breakfast bake perfect for breakfast, brunch, or even dinner. I love to make this on Sundays so I have a quick grab-n-go breakfast when I’m pressed for time (which we all know is usually everyday of the week!).
