How to Make Egg Breakfast Casserole

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9x9 baking dish with coconut oil.
Slice the sweet potato into 1/4-inch rounds and layer them evenly in the baking dish.
Sauté the ground turkey in a skillet with melted coconut oil for about 3-5 minutes until browned.
Whisk the eggs together with paprika and garlic powder, then pour the mixture over the turkey layer.
Bake the casserole for 30 minutes, then add the baby spinach on top and bake for an additional 5-15 minutes.
Check for doneness by ensuring the center is firm and not jiggly.
