Vegetable and Egg Bake

This tasty, colorful, vegetable-rich egg bake makes a satisfying meal and can be cooked ahead of time and reheated.

2 tbsp cooking oil (olive, avocado, canola all work)

1 large onion, chopped

1 large carrot, thinly sliced

1 pound frozen hashbrowns, thawed

10 oz of frozen corn, thawed

10 oz fresh or frozen broccoli, thawed if frozen

6 tbsp prepared pesto

8 large eggs, lightly whisked

1 cup whole milk plain Greek yogurt

1/2 tsp salt

1/2 tsp black pepper

Optional: 1/2 cup cheese (parmesan, sharp cheddar, or pepper jack)

Grease a 9×13 baking pan or casserole dish.
Preheat the oven to 375°F. In a large sauté pan, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat, and add the onion and carrot. Cook, stirring, for at least 5 minutes, until the carrots are tender. Add the hash browns, corn and broccoli and stir, turning the vegetables in the pan. Sprinkle the vegetables in the prepared baking pan, and dollop the pesto over the vegetables.
In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs, yogurt, salt and pepper. Drizzle over the vegetables, using your spatula to lift the veggies just enough to allow the eggs to flow around them. Smooth the top, and if desired, sprinkle with parmesan.
Bake for 40–45 minutes, until the eggs and veggies are firm when pressed and golden brown on top.
Serve hot, or let cool completely, cover tightly, and refrigerate for up to 2 days. Reheat at 350°F in the oven for 20 minutes, or microwave individual slices.

This tasty breakfast or brunch dish is perfectly complemented by a cold fruit salad or a simple green salad with a vinaigrette.
