Veggie Sweet Potato Egg Casserole

"Introducing the Sweet Potato Breakfast Casserole, a delightful choice for those seeking a convenient make-ahead breakfast or brunch option. Packed with a perfect balance of protein, carbohydrates, and antioxidants, this sweet potato egg bake doubles as a fantastic meal prep casserole. By preparing the ingredients ahead of time and simply baking it the next morning, you'll save time without compromising on taste. For those who prefer a savory touch, feel free to include some sausage or bacon in this flavorful dish! However, it's worth noting that each serving already boasts approximately 25 grams of protein, making this casserole a protein-rich choice on its own."
