Sausage, Pepper, and Sweet Potato Paleo Breakfast Casserole

This turned out pretty amazing! I made this with breakfast sausage and used one orange pepper instead of red and green. I make these breakfast meal preps for my mom and she tends to pick out red peppers and anything green, so I thought the orange pepper would camouflage in better. Anyways, this was a delicious casserole to prep ahead of time and have ready for breakfast all week. Just like egg muffins, you can adjust this casserole to your liking and simply throw in any ingredients you enjoy. If you want a leaner protein source just swap the sausage out with some lean ground meat, or if you don't eat meat then add in some butternut squash, spinach, or other veggies! Who has time to make breakfast in the morning? Meal prep a casserole like this and be set, eating good, for the week! 

Paleo Breakfast Casserole
Ingredients:

4. Combine together sausage, sweet potatoes, and peppers, and pour evenly into a 9x13 baking dish.
