This casserole is an egg-based dish baked with fresh asparagus, tangy feta cheese, and seasonings. Similar to a crustless quiche, it’s nutritious, protein-rich, and naturally low in carbs, making it a versatile choice for any breakfast table.
8 large eggs
1 cup milk (or half-and-half for creaminess)
2 cups fresh asparagus, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces
1 small onion, finely chopped (optional)
1 tablespoon olive oil (for sautéing)
1 cup crumbled feta cheese
½ cup shredded mozzarella or cheddar cheese (optional for extra creaminess)
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoons fresh dill or parsley, chopped (optional garnish)
Set oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
Steam or blanch asparagus for 2–3 minutes until just tender, then pat dry.
Heat olive oil in a skillet and cook onion until soft and translucent.
In a large bowl, whisk eggs, milk, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until smooth.
Spread asparagus and onion evenly in the baking dish. Pour the egg mixture over, then sprinkle crumbled feta and shredded mozzarella on top.
Bake uncovered for 35–40 minutes until eggs are fully set and the top is golden.
Let the casserole cool for 5 minutes before slicing. Garnish with fresh dill or parsley.
