Breakfast is the most important meal of the day, they say. And I tend to agree. If you start your day off right with a nice breakfast, the rest of the day tends to follow suit. One of my all time favorite breakfast (or brunch) items is eggs benedict. A simple breakfast bite with english muffins, eggs, and hollandaise sauce. However, with the holidays coming up, I tend to gravitate towards casseroles.

So, why not turn a classic breakfast dish into a casserole? This Skinny Overnight Eggs Benedict Casserole is really simple to make and is pretty similar to a strata or a quiche. The only difference really is the use of english muffins and the added hollandaise sauce.

To keep this casserole more mindful and health conscious, I decided to use whole wheat english muffins. I also used turkey Canadian bacon instead of traditional ham Canadian bacon. I also used unsweetened almond milk for the milk to save on calories. After that, a quick blender hollandaise sauce is made with a handful of ingredients and all of 5 minutes to make. No fuss. No muss.

The end result is a delicious breakfast brunch casserole that is sure to impress. My favorite thing about this breakfast casserole is that it’s made ahead of time (the day before) and is baked the morning of. Meaning it’s pretty hands off on the day you bake it.

Out of all the breakfast casseroles I’ve made over the years, this one is definitely one of my favorites. It’s warm and cozy and just a little more elegant, making it a perfect Holiday breakfast or brunch option to have available for friends and family to enjoy.
