When you get tired of making chicken, steak, hamburger, pork, etc etc, for supper, what do you do? My favorite thing is to make breakfast food! Now pre-Keto that would have most likely meant pancakes or hashbrowns; those evil carb loaded foods. But now that I’m doing keto, those items are a no fly zone.
Eggs benedict was (is) one of my favorite foods, but obviously you can’t have the english muffin on Keto. So when I found this recipe for an eggs benedict casserole, I just knew I had to make it.
There aren’t many ingredients to it either. The most difficult part for people will be the hollandaise sauce and even that isn’t that hard. After having made it, I would make a few adjustments on the recipe due to personal preference, but I’ll give you the recipe as I found it and made it and tell you what I personally thought of it and would have done differently.
For the casserole, start by preheating the oven to 350. Set aside enough of the canadian bacon/ham to line the bottom of at 9×13 casserole dish and chop the rest. Heat up 1 tbsp butter or olive oil in a Frying Pan
Put the eggs (no shells please!) in a large mixing bowl and whisk. Add in the remaining ingredients and whisk until thoroughly mixed. Pour over the ham and sprinkle 3/4 of the cooked ham into the egg mixture. Bake for 20 minutes then add the rest of the ham and bake another 10 minutes until egg is set.
Now, onto the hollandaise sauce. Start by separating the egg yolk from the white and put the egg yolks into either a stainless steel or glass bowl. The easiest way to do that is to use an Egg Separator 
There are six servings in this recipe. Cut a slice of casserole and top it with hollandaise. Voila! Eggs Benedict Casserole
It was such an easy recipe, but I would leave the mustard and the onion powder out of the eggs and omit the majority of the lemon juice in the hollandaise. It made it way too sour and I love a good hollandaise. Let me know what your thoughts on when you make it!
