Creating the Spinach Mushroom Breakfast Casserole is straightforward. Follow these simple steps:

6. Combine Mixtures: Add the sautéed vegetables to the egg mixture, stirring gently to combine.
7. Add Cheese: Fold in the shredded cheese of your choice, ensuring an even distribution.
8. Prepare Baking Dish: Grease an 8×8-inch baking dish or a similar-sized casserole dish.
9. Pour Mixture: Pour the egg and vegetable mixture into the prepared baking dish.
10. Bake: Place in the preheated oven and bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the center is set and the top is lightly golden.
11. Cool and Serve: Remove from the oven and let it cool for 5-10 minutes. Slice into squares and serve warm.
