7 Healthy Breakfast Casseroles That Are Easy To Make

Casseroles have long been a dinnertime go-to for many reasons: One, they get a well-rounded meal on the table that doesn’t require a ton of active cooking time and only dirty one main dish in the process. Plus, a single casserole yields enough servings to feed a crowded table or produce plenty of leftovers for easy lunches, another perk—especially during busy weeks.

But who says this time-saving dish needs to be relegated to suppers alone? The healthy breakfast casseroles here can offer the same benefits for your first meal of the day. Loaded with protein and fiber, they’re sure to keep you full until lunchtime rolls around, too. Make your way down the list by cooking up one of these recipes a week and you’ll have your breakfasts taken care of for almost two months. How’s that for helpful?

Scroll down for 7 healthy breakfast casseroles that will save you time in the morning.
