Can You Make Breakfast Casserole in Batches? 

For a double batch use a 9×13 baking dish and double the ingredients.

Just be sure when you are using different sized dishes that cooking time may take a little longer.

How To Meal Prep Whole30 Breakfast Casserole? 

One batch of this casserole makes about 9 squares (4×4). You can always make a double batch for the week or to freeze (which I recommend). You know that meal planning works best when it is as convenient as possible. So once the breakfast casserole cools and has been sliced, place it in single-serve portions into freezer-friendly containers for next time. 

Reheat in your oven or air fryer for a few minutes (around 350 degrees for 5 – 10 minutes) or microwave in increments until warm.

Tips for Making 

  • Feel free to add more veggies like mushrooms and other pepper varieties 
  • Swap out the turkey for Whole30 approved bacon, sausage, or ground chicken.
  • Make the casserole into individual cups by using a muffin pan! If you do this, the cooking time will be reduced, so just keep an eye on it while it is baking.
  • If you decide to use frozen spinach, make sure it is thawed and DRAINED well to get rid of all of the water. This will make the casserole super soggy if you skip the draining process.
  • Chop, dice, and brown the ingredients ahead of time to make the prep process shorter when you are running low on time!
