How to Make Kitchen Sink Egg Bake
- Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C).
- Thaw frozen spinach completely. Squeeze out as much excess moisture as possible using a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth.
- In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs until light and frothy.
- Stir in the cottage cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, spinach, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Mix until thoroughly combined.
- Lightly spray a 13x9 inch glass baking dish with cooking spray.
- Evenly distribute the cooked meat (ham, bacon, sausage, or chicken) across the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
- Pour the cottage cheese and egg mixture evenly over the meat.
- Gently push the mixture with a spatula to ensure even distribution.
- If desired, sprinkle the top with extra shredded cheese.
- Sprinkle toasted wheat germ over the cheese.
- Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the egg bake is set and lightly browned around the edges. A knife inserted into the center should come out clean.
- Let the egg bake sit for a few minutes after baking before slicing and serving.
- Serve hot or at room temperature. Enjoy!
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
