# Guide to Cooking:
01 -
Set oven temperature to 190°C (375°F) to prepare for baking.
02 -
Heat avocado oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add chopped onion and green bell pepper, cooking until softened, approximately 5 minutes.
03 -
Incorporate cubed sweet potatoes and minced garlic into the skillet. Cook until sweet potatoes begin to soften, about 10 minutes.

Add turkey sausage to the skillet, breaking it apart with a spoon. Cook until browned throughout, around 8 minutes.
05 -
In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, dried thyme, salt, and black pepper until fully combined.
06 -
Pour the egg mixture evenly over the sweet potato and sausage blend in the skillet. Stir gently to integrate.
07 -
Evenly sprinkle grated mozzarella cheese over the top of the mixture.
08 -
Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven. Bake uncovered for 30 to 35 minutes, until eggs are set and cheese is melted with a golden crust.
09 -
Allow the casserole to cool slightly before portioning and serving.
# Extra Suggestions:

Plant-based milk substitutes can be used to replace dairy milk. Cheddar cheese provides a sharp alternative to mozzarella. Incorporate additional vegetables such as spinach or mushrooms for enhanced nutrition.
