Paleo Taco Breakfast Casserole

Ingredients

1 tbsp coconut oil
One medium yellow onion, peeled and diced
1 lb ground beef
Two medium carrots, shredded
1/2 cup shredded green cabbage
1 green bell pepper, diced
1 tsp chili powder
1/4 tsp each of garlic powder
1/4 tsp onion powder
1/4 tsp dried oregano
1/2 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp ground cumin
Dash of salt and pepper
8 eggs
Optional Toppings: black olives, green onion, sliced avocado, salsa, raw grass fed cheddar cheese

Directions
Heat oven to 350ºF.

Heat coconut oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion and cook until soft and translucent, 3 to 5 minutes, stirring frequently.

Add ground beef to skillet and cook until it begins to brown, 5 to 7 minutes, stirring often to break up the meat.

Add carrots, cabbage and bell pepper and continue to cook until meat is fully browned and vegetables are soft, about 6 to 8 minutes, stirring often.

Transfer beef and vegetable mixture to a large glass baking dish (9''x13'' or similar). Pour eggs evenly over top of beef and vegetables and use a fork to gently stir in eggs.

Optional: Top with sliced black olives and/or diced green onion

Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 30 minutes. Uncover and bake for an additional 10 to 15 minutes, until eggs are set. Cut into 6 slices.

Optional: Serve with avocado, salsa or a sprinkling of raw grass fed cheddar cheese

“The Paleo diet is a powerful strategy for weight loss, but my best tip for successfully losing weight on the Paleo diet actually has nothing to do with food!”

“My tip is to get plenty of sleep! Most of us don’t realize just how well proven the link between inadequate sleep and obesity is in the scientific literature. Not getting enough sleep causes food cravings and increased hunger, makes us less inhibited in our food choices, makes us insulin and leptin resistant, slows metabolism, makes it harder to build muscle, is inflammatory, and causes chemical changes in the brain that can lead to food addiction.
