Carnivore Breakfast Casserole (Strata) Recipe

heavy cream

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: milk + cornstarch

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess

cheddar cheese

🥗Healthier: reduced-fat cheddar

💰Cheaper: American cheese

Reduced-fat cheddar lowers calories without losing flavor.

Preheat the oven to 375°F.

Add 3 oz of pork rinds into a food processor and pulse until finely ground.

Crack 6 eggs into the food processor and add 1 1/2 teaspoons of baking powder; blend on low until combined.

Spread the mixture onto a parchment-lined baking sheet in a rectangle shape.

Bake in the oven for 5 to 7 minutes or until cooked through.

Chop 12 oz of bacon into bigger pieces and cook in a pan until crispy.

Cook 1/2 lb of breakfast sausage in the same pan until browned and cooked through.

In a mixing bowl, whisk together 3 eggs, 1 1/2 cups of half and half, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, 1/8 teaspoon of black pepper, 1 1/2 teaspoons of Worcestershire sauce, and 1/2 teaspoon of Dijon mustard.

Grease an 8x8 baking dish with butter.

Layer 4 slices of sharp cheddar cheese in the bottom of the dish.

Add 3/4 of the cooked breakfast sausage and 3/4 of the cooked bacon on top of the cheese.

Add the second layer of the pork rind mixture, pressing it down.

Sprinkle the remaining sausage and bacon on top of the second layer.

Pour the custard mixture over the layers, ensuring it floats to the top.

Bake in the oven at 350°F for about 30 minutes or until the custard is set, checking with a toothpick for doneness.

Let the casserole rest for about 10 minutes before slicing.
