Healthy Pistachio Casserole - Vegetarian and Gluten-Free ♥

This make-ahead pistachio casserole is perfect for serving multiple people because you prepare it one hour to 24 hours in advance. This allows the egg mixture to soak into the bread and it gives you time to hang out with company rather than spending all morning in the kitchen prepping breakfast.

This vegetarian and gluten-free casserole is on the lighter side since we used Unsweetened Pistachio Drink (only 32.7 calories per glass) and a blend of cottage cheese. Don’t forget to add some fresh veggies to boost the flavour and give the casserole a vibrant green colour.

It’s easy peasy, can be made ahead of time and is sure to delight everyone in your family!
