Preheat oven to 400°F
Quick steam spinach- In a large sauce pan over medium/low heat, add spinach and ½ cup water. Cook stirring occasionally until just wilted. Remove from heat, drain and squeeze out any extra liquid. Roughly chop if leaves are big and place into a large mixing bowl. Set aside.
Prepare Eggy Batter- Add all Vegan Egg ingredients into a blender and blend until smooth and creamy
Add diced peppers and onions to bowl with spinach, pour over eggy batter and stir to combine.
Prepare 13x9 casserole dish- (other sizes will work, but may affect cook time.) Either spray dish liberally with non-stick spray, OR line bottom of dish with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
Into prepared dish, layer about ¾ of frozen shredded potatoes evenly on the bottom of the dish. Pour over all eggy mixture and smooth top. Evenly layer the remaining frozen potatoes over the top.
Bake- Cover with foil and bake for 45 minutes. Remove cover and bake for another 40-55 minutes. To check for doneness, take a peak at the center of casserole. The eggy layer should look set and not liquidly when finished.
