Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease a 9 x 13-inch baking dish and set it aside.

- Spread the cauliflower, cooked vegetables, and sausage evenly across the baking dish.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, egg whites, cottage cheese, shredded cheese, salt, and pepper until well combined.
