Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with a light coating of olive oil or cooking spray.
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté for 2-3 minutes until translucent.
Add the mushrooms, red bell pepper, and chicken sausage to the skillet. Cook for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender. Toss in the baby spinach and cook for another 1-2 minutes until wilted. Set aside to cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, almond milk, garlic powder, paprika, sea salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Spread the cooked vegetable and sausage mixture evenly in the prepared baking dish. Pour the egg mixture over the top, ensuring an even distribution.
If using cheese, sprinkle the shredded cheese evenly over the top of the casserole.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the casserole is set in the middle and lightly golden on top.
Remove from the oven and let the casserole rest for 5 minutes before slicing into 6 portions. Serve warm and enjoy!
