🥓 Carnivore Breakfast Skillet Casserole
Yields: 4–5 hearty servings
Total Time: ~25–30 minutes
Freezer-Friendly: Yes
🧾 Ingredients:
- 2 lbs ground sausage (pork sausage or your favorite no-sugar-added brand)
- 8 large eggs
- 1 (8 oz) brick cream cheese
- 6–8 strips bacon
- 1 cup shredded cheese (mozzarella, cheddar, or a mix — optional for strict carnivore)
- Salt (optional) — depends on sausage seasoning
- Optional: Dash of pepper, garlic powder, or red pepper flakes if you’re carnivore-ish
👨🍳 Instructions:
- Cook the bacon:
In a large skillet, cook bacon until crisp. Set aside on paper towel. Once cool, crumble into bits. - Brown the sausage:
In the same pan (with a bit of bacon grease left), add ground sausage. Cook until fully browned. Drain excess grease if needed. - Add cream cheese:
Cut the cream cheese into chunks and melt it into the hot sausage. Stir until fully combined and creamy. - Scramble the eggs:
In a bowl, whisk the eggs. Pour them into the sausage-cream cheese mixture. Stir gently over medium heat until the eggs are just set but still soft and fluffy. - Add bacon & cheese:
Stir in the crumbled bacon and shredded cheese. Keep stirring until everything is melted, gooey, and combined. - Cool & Portion:
Let cool slightly, then portion into 4–5 meal containers.
To Reheat:
- Microwave: 1½ to 2 minutes from fridge
- From frozen: Thaw overnight or microwave from frozen in 2–3 minute bursts, stirring halfway
🥩 Optional Add-ins (Carnivore-ish):
- Crumbled beef or chorizo for a meat blend
- 1–2 extra yolks for richness
- Sprinkle of Parmesan for flavor depth
