Sausage Breakfast Casserole

During the cold winter months I often crave comfort foods.  At home growing up this was always some sort of casserole dish.  Always high calorie and full of gluten and wheat products.  As I eat cleaner and find myself avoiding those foods as much as I can without insulting relatives ("What do you mean you don't want my brownies that I worked on all day to make?").  I still crave the comfort foods.  This version of breakfast casserole is tasty and relatively low calorie and higher in nutrients compared to a potato based one.  Added bonus...5 ingredients! 

Ingredients:

Approximately 4 servings
1 pound ground breakfast sausage or other ground meat
3 turnips, peeled and grated (a food processor works well for this)
1/2 onion diced
4 eggs
3 scallions, chopped

Instructions:
Sauté sausage and onions, breaking it the sausage into small pieces with a spoon or spatula, until almost cooked through.  Mix the sausage and onions with the rest of the ingredients.
Spoon into a 8×8 baking pan.  When ready to cook, heat oven to 400 degrees. Bake for 45 minutes then cover the pan and bake for 25 minutes more. Let cool 15-20 minutes so the casserole sets before cutting into it.  (my wife prefers this with a little shredded cheese on top...that ups the calories though)
