FAQs & Tips

Can you cook this overnight?

I don’t consider this an overnight slow cooker casserole because of its short cook time. Even when cooked on low, this casserole usually done in under. This is not a large casserole. I use a small 2.5-quart slow cooker. If you’re looking to feed a larger crowd, you can double the recipe and use a 6-quart slow cooker. If you double the recipe and use 12 eggs, you will be able to cook the casserole overnight. Of course this all depending on how your slow cooker heats.

Do you need a ripe avocado?

Don’t you hate when you think you have the perfect avocado and you open it up to brown spots? While it still tastes okay, something about that brown spot makes is visually unappealing. Brown spotted avocados are okay. Not too brown but a couple brown spots are alright. The avocado is being mashed and incorporated into the egg mixture anyway.

Can you add other ingredients?

What else can you add to the breakfast casserole? Better question is what can’t you add? Cooked, crumbled bacon or sausage, diced vegetables like bell pepper, onion, mushrooms, squash. You can get creative with the cheeses as well you don’t have to use cheddar. If you want to make this casserole paleo and whole30 compliant, omit the cheese. It will still be low-carb and keto!  I used almond milk because I’m lactose-intolerant; you can use your preferred milk.

How will you know when it’s done?

When this is done cooking, check the center with a knife. If it comes out clean, it’s done. If not, cook it a little bit longer. Please note that if it has a wet looking center, it still might be done. The avocado and cheese combo gives it an almost custard like consistency in places.

  2. This says it’s good for meal prep. Does that mean the casserole can hold up for at least a week? I’d love to prep this for the week, but I know avocado has a hard time staying fresh for long. Thank you!

  3. Two of my favorite ingredients, mashed into one? How much better can it get? Cant wait to try this thanks FSCQ
