Lower Carb Creamy Egg Casserole

Submitted by Nicole McBride

"This egg casserole is the best I have ever had. It is much more low-carb friendly than all other egg casserole recipes because it does not have any bread or potatoes. This recipe came from my Mom and she got it from her mother in law. This can be made a day in advance and kept in the fridge until ready to bake. We have included other veggies such as asparagus and zucchini. This is the perfect recipe for Christmas morning or any family gathering."
