Butternut Squash & Sausage Egg Bake
Servings: 6 people
Calories: 221kcal
Ingredients
- 1 pound small butternut squash peeled, seeded, and cut into ½-inch chunks
- 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil plus more for greasing the pan
- Kosher or fine sea salt to taste
- Freshly ground black pepper to taste
- ½ pound gluten-free turkey sausage
- ½ medium yellow onion chopped
- 10 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons water
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375ºF. Toss the butternut squash with the olive oil on a baking sheet. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Roast for 25-30 minutes, until tender and brown in spots.
- Meanwhile, grease an 8×8-inch baking dish with olive oil. Set aside.
- In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the sausage, crumbling it up with a wooden spoon, for 3-5 minutes. Add the onion. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the sausage is cooked through and the vegetables are just tender, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat.
- Arrange the roasted squash in the bottom of the greased baking dish. Add the sausage and onions, spreading them out evenly. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, water, and a generous pinch each of salt and pepper. Pour the egg mixture over the sausage and vegetables.
- Bake for 35-40 minutes, until puffed and cooked through.
Notes
Serving Suggestion: Pair slices of egg bake with a simple salad of fresh arugula tossed with olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and pepper.
