Baby Kale, Mozzarella, and Egg Bake

Ingredients

• 5 oz. baby kale or chopped kale leaves
• 2 tsp. olive oil
• 1 1/2 cup grated mozzarella cheese
• 1/3 cup thinly sliced green onion
• 8 eggs
• 1 tsp. Spike Seasoning
• salt and fresh ground black pepper to taste

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 375F/190C.
2. Spray an 8 1/2 inch by 12 inch glass or crockery casserole dish with olive oil or nonstick spray.
3. Heat the oil in a large frying pan, add the kale all at once. (I used Earthbound Farm Ready-to-use Organic Mixed Baby Kales.)
4. Then stir just until the kale is wilted, about 1 minute for baby kale or 2-3 minutes for chopped kale.
5. Transfer the kale to the casserole dish, spreading it around so all the bottom of the dish is covered.
6. Layer the grated cheese and sliced onions on top of the kale.
7. Beat the eggs with Spike Seasoning (affiliate link) or other seasoning mix and salt and fresh ground pepper to taste. (I use only a tiny pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper.)
8. Pour the egg mixture over the kale/cheese combination, and then use a fork to gently “stir” so the eggs, kale, and cheese are evenly combined.
9. Bake about 30-35 minutes or until the mixture is completely set and starting to lightly brown.
10. Let cool about 5 minutes before cutting. (The egg bake will settle down some as it cools.)
11. Serve hot.
12. This is good with light sour cream.
13. I also like a little Green Tabasco Sauce (affiliate link) sprinkled on the top.
