Baked Eggs with Mushrooms and Spinach

Hearty whole-grain bread is layered with a mixture of sautéed mushrooms, spinach, onions, and scallions. Unsweetened almond milk gives this dish rich flavor and can be a smart choice for people who have difficulty digesting lactose. As a substitute for calcium-rich dairy, be sure to look for brands that are fortified with calcium and vitamin D.

Cutting the breakfast casserole into squares around each piece of toast ensures neat portions. So bake up this veggie surprise and enjoy it with loved ones as you linger a little longer over breakfast.
