Ingredients
  

Egg Bake
  • 6 Eggs large
  • ¼ cup Milk or cream
  • ½ cup Mushrooms, chopped button or cremini
  • ½ cup Tomatoes, finely diced peeled and seeded as needed
  • 2-3 Breakfast sausages, cooked and chopped
  • Salt and Pepper to taste
Baked Bean Sauce
  • 1 cup baked beans
  • ¼ cup vegetable or chicken broth
  • ½ tsp Worcestershire sauce

Equipment

  • 1 8x8-inch baking dish lightly greased
  • 1 Large bowl
  • 1 Blender or food processor

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease an 8×8-inch baking dish.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until smooth.
  3. Stir in chopped mushrooms, tomatoes, and sausage.
  4. Pour mixture into baking dish and bake 25–30 minutes until just set. For a custard-like texture, bake in a water bath.

  6. Slice egg bake into portions and serve with baked bean puree over the top. Garnish with fresh herbs if desired.

Notes

IDDSI Texture Modifications:
  • Puree 4 (PU4): Blend the baked eggs until smooth, adjusting with a small amount of milk if needed to reach a thick, spoonable consistency. Use the baked bean puree to garnish.
  • Minced & Moist 5 (MM5):Finely mince the egg bake and mix with the baked bean puree.
  • Soft & Bite-sized 6 (SB6): Soft and Bite sized: This recipe is naturally soft and only needs portions to be appropriately cut to the length of a set of fork tines to fit this IDDSI level.
  • Easy to Chew 7 (EC7): This recipe is within this IDDSI level, enjoy!
Macro Adjustments:
  • Protein: This dish, due to the meat and egg base, is naturally high in protein. Cottage cheese could be a way to add more creaminess while also adding more protein.
  • Fats: You can adjust fats up and down by how you choose your dairy, the leanness of meat (turkey and chicken sausages are great swaps to bring it down), ratio of full eggs to egg whites. You could add avocado slices for more healthy fats.
  • Carbs: The beans' sugars are the biggest source of carbs. You can find baked beans that use alternative sugars or less sugars, or go for a low-sugar tomato sauce instead.
Dietary Swaps:
  • Gluten-free: Naturally gluten free recipe, so enjoy as written.
  • Dairy-free/Vegan: You can really personalize the texture by which type of tofu is used for the base of this recipe. Swap out for plant based milks
Low-Spoons Shortcuts:
  • Get Premade: Pasteurized egg whites are a great way to have easily microwavable eggs. Heat spam or fully cooked sausage links with tomato sauce and canned mushrooms.
  • Single Casserole: You can simply add a can of baked beans to the rest of the ingredients in a greased casserole dish.
