A high protein, low carb breakfast recipe, this Greek-inspired spinach and feta egg bake is full of flavor and great for making ahead of time.

Love it or hate it, I’m a firm believer that meal planning and food prep is the key to success when it comes to reaching weight loss and/or total health goals. While I don’t always make it happen, my week always goes better when I make it a priority.

As I mentioned recently when I shared my easy Turkey Breakfast Sausage recipe, I am a huge fan of make-ahead high protein, low carb breakfast recipes. This Greek-inspired egg bake is packed with 26 grams of protein per serving and less than 5 grams of carbohydrates.

Made with tangy feta cheese and seasoned with oregano, each bite is full of Greek flavors. Feel free to get creative and throw in kalamata olives or sun-dried tomatoes.

If you don’t have spinach on hand, any leafy green will work such as kale or Swiss chard. For an added kick, sprinkle with chili flakes before serving.
Your fork is waiting.

Spinach and Feta Greek Egg Bake

Instructions

This is a great recipe! I added a diced roma tomato and a small can of black sliced olives! Next time I make I will add some sauteed portabella mushrooms sauteed in chopped garlic and hubby is screaming … “Where’s the meat?” Maybe some breakfast sausage next time. I used a deep dish pie pan. It came out excellent but did require more cook time. Absolutely delicious! Thank you for sharing it! =)

Recipe says to use 8×8 baking dish but in the video the dish was not 8×8. What size should be used?
Liz DellaCroce
Either pan size works – I just like the 8×8 because it makes thicker slices. :)

This sounds like a great breakfast, but as one who has only two people eating it, I’m curious to know how it reheats. Have you tried that?
Liz DellaCroce
I ALWAYS reheat it – I make it on Sunday and eat it all week. It reheats really well!

If I makeahead do I cook it or can I put mixture in the fridge overnight.?
Liz DellaCroce
Cook it then refrigerate!
