Preheat the oven to 350 F. Set aside an 8x8 casserole dish. In a sauté pan, add the extra virgin olive oil with the diced bell peppers and jalapeños. Cook 3 minutes until slightly tender.
Then add the ground chicken with the onion powder, oregano, cumin, paprika and chili powder. Break up the meat as it cooks with a wood spoon or spatula.
Once the meat is cooled, remove the pan from the heat to cool slightly.
As the meat cools, whisk together the eggs in a large mixing bowl. Add the green and red salsa with the eggs.
Stir in the ground chicken mixture and transfer to the baking dish. Sprinkle with nutritional yeast (if not Paleo, you can add a bit of cheese).
Bake at 350 F 1 hour 15 minutes or until the center is set. Remove from the oven and let the casserole sit at room temperature 15 minutes before slicing and enjoying.
Note the casserole will be liquid-y after baking, but it's really delicious! Add it to grain-free tortillas or serve over a salad.
