Spinach and Mushroom Egg Casserole

Savory and oh-so-good, the cream of soup, spinach, eggs, sliced mushrooms and lots of cheese make this side dish hearty and filling enough for dinner as well.

Spinach Mushroom Breakfast Casserole Recipe JUST OUT OF THE OVEN

If you love veggies but are tired of the same old hashbrown filled breakfast casserole recipes, you are in for a treat. One of my readers said “THIS WAS SO GOOD” and I hope you feel the same way!

  • Before you get started on this casserole, please know there is some pre-prep work – cook and drain pork sausage first and then the recipe is ready to be assembled.
  • Additionally, this casserole takes about 55-60 minutes to cook, therefore cooking times need to be planned.

Ingredients

  • 10 ounces seasoned croutons
  • 1lb ground pork sausage, cooked and crumbled
  • 6 large eggs
  • 2-1/4 cups milk
  • 10.5 oz. cream of mushroom soup
  • 10 oz. frozen spinach, thawed but not drained
  • 8 oz. sliced fresh mushrooms
  • 2 cups shredded cheese – Monterey jack or Cheddar Jack
  • salt and black pepper

As a side note, you may notice two kinds of images in this recipe (one clear casserole dish and one blue one). This is because we made it two separate times and updated the images to best show you the steps.

How to make Spinach Mushroom Egg Casserole

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Grease a 9×13 baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. Spread croutons into the bottom of the pan. Sprinkle cooked and crumbled sausage on top of croutons.

In a large bowl, add eggs, milk and cream of mushroom soup and whisk eggs well. Fold in thawed but not drained spinach and sliced mushrooms. Mix all ingredients together well.

Does the spinach need to be drained of excess moisture?

Nope! Do not drain thawed spinach, or squeeze any water out of it. Some recipes (like crockpot spinach artichoke dip) require that but this breakfast bake does not.

  6. 6

    Pour cheesy spinach mixture on top of croutons and sausage in the baking dish.

  7. 7

    Bake casserole in the oven at 325 degrees for 50-55 minutes. As a note, because this recipe has cheese, its much harder to check for doneness in the middle as the cheese will show on the knife. Once done cooking, let stand for 5 minutes before slicing and serving (this process is necessary to avoid the casserole breaking apart). Enjoy!
