Ingredients

  • 1 pound sausage
  • 1 1 /2 red onions cut into 1" wedges
  • 2 cups curly kale torn into bite sized pieces
  • 4 eggs
  • 2 ½ cups chicken stock
  • 1/2 stick butter melted
  • 1 ¼ pounds sourdough bread torn into bite sized pieces
  • ½ cup fresh parsley chopped (or 1 tablespoon dried parsley)
  • 1 tablespoon thyme leaves finely chopped (or 1 teaspoon dried thyme)
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons REAL salt
  • 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375. Grease a 9x 13 pan and set aside.
  • On a sheet pan, toss the sausage and onions, salt, and pepper. Roast at 375 for 20 minutes, until browned and softened. Add the kale on top of the sausage and roast for five more minutes, until the kale is just wilted.
  • In a large bowl, combine whisk eggs and combine with chicken broth, melted butter, and remaining herbs. Add bread and toss to combine. Finally, mix in 3/4 of the roasted veggie mix.
  • Pour into the prepared pan, then decoratively scatter the remaining roasted veg on top. Cover tightly with foil, then bake, covered for 30 minutes. After 30 minutes, remove the foil. Bake for 30 more minutes until lightly browned. Let sit for 10 minutes before serving.
