Breakfast casseroles, oh how I love thee! Let me count the ways…

Actually, I’ll do you one better – I’ll give you TEN mouthwatering ways to kickstart your day with some hearty vegan breakfast casserole goodness.

As a longtime vegan and breakfast enthusiast (is there any better meal?), I’ve spent years perfecting the art of the morning casserole.

Trust me, once you try these, you’ll never go back to boring old cereal again.

I’ve collaborated with some of the best vegan chefs out there to bring you a variety of flavors and styles.

We’ve got sweet, savory, gluten-free options, protein-packed powerhouses, and even a few that double as dessert (because who says you can’t have cake for breakfast?).

The best part? These casseroles are super easy to whip up and perfect for meal prep.

Make a big batch on Sunday and boom – breakfast is sorted for the week.

So grab your favorite casserole dish and let’s dive in. Your taste buds are about to go on a wild ride!

Alright, let’s kick things off with a classic, shall we?

I’m talking bell peppers, onions, spinach – go wild!

Layer it all in a casserole dish with some vegan cheese and bake until golden.

The result? A protein-packed breakfast that’ll keep you full till lunch (or at least until your mid-morning snack, let’s be real).

Pro tip: Throw in some black salt (kala namak) for that sulfury egg flavor.

It’s a game-changer, trust me.

I once served this to my non-vegan cousin and he honest-to-god asked me if I’d “gone back to eating eggs.”

HAH! Fooled ya, buddy.
