Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large saucepan, heat a tablespoon of avocado oil over medium heat. Chop sweet potatoes into 1-inch cubes, along with onion and green pepper. Sauté for 8-9 minutes until softened, adding minced garlic in the last 1-2 minutes.
- Grease a 9x13-inch casserole dish. Spread the sautéed mixture evenly across the bottom.
- In the same saucepan, add the turkey sausage and sauté until fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes. Break sausage into smaller pieces and mix with sautéed vegetables in the casserole dish.
- In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, fresh thyme, salt, pepper, and shredded cheese until smooth.
- Pour the egg mixture evenly over the vegetable and sausage layer in the casserole dish. Stir gently to integrate.
- Bake for 40-45 minutes. The casserole should be firm to the touch; cover with foil if browning too quickly.
- Remove from the oven and let cool for about 15 minutes before slicing and serving warm.

Notes
Ensure sweet potatoes are cut into uniform 1-inch cubes. Drain excess liquid to avoid a watery casserole. Customize ingredients based on dietary needs.
