Cheese, Spinach, Sausage and Egg Casserole

Ingredients:

1 lb tube of breakfast sausage
1 bag frozen chopped spinach (16 oz), or fresh
2 tsp Garlic Powder
2 tsp Onion Powder
Salt/Pepper to taste
1/2 tsp red pepper flakes
12 eggs
1/2 c heavy cream
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
1/2 c ricotta cheese

Directions:

Sauté sausage until browned, breaking it up as you go (drain away fat).

Add spinach and sauté until moisture goes away.

Add salt, pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, and pepper flakes. Set aside until it cools off a bit.

Beat eggs with the heavy cream and cheeses until all combined.

Mix the sausage mixture into the egg mixture and pour into a greased 9x9 (or 8x8) pan.

Bake at 350 F for 45-60 minutes until browned and firm.
