TEXAS TWO-STEP BREAKFAST CASSEROLE



Texas Two-Step Breakfast Casserole image

This is a quick and hearty breakfast casserole. We were a bit leery there wouldn't be enough eggs (with all the other goodies packed in here), but it was perfect. It has a Tex-Mex flair to it with the green chilies, onion, and seasoning. When served with a little sour cream and pico it tastes like a breakfast taco. Great for...

Time 55m

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 can(s) mild chilies, drained very well (1 7 oz. can and 1 4 oz. can)
8 corn tortillas, cut into strips
1 pkg bulk breakfast sausage (12 oz.), cooked and drained
1 medium yellow onion, diced
8 eggs
1/2 c heavy whipping cream (can substitute milk or half and half)
1 tsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp garlic salt or powder
1 1/2 c pepper jack or cheddar cheese (or a combination), shredded
2 small roma tomatoes, sliced
1/2 tsp paprika
sour cream, optional
pico de gallo, optional
romaine lettuce leaves, optional

Steps:

  • 1. Lightly coat a 13x9 (or similar size) baking dish with non-stick spray. Add a layer of 1/2 of the chilies.
  • 2. Add half of the tortilla strips.
  • 3. Add half of the sausage and onion.
  • 4. Add half of the cheese to the dish.
  • 5. Repeat a second time with remaining chilies, tortilla strips, sausage, onion, and cheese.
  • 6. In a medium bowl, whisk eggs, cream, salt, pepper, garlic salt, and cumin together until well combined.
  • 7. Pour over casserole.
  • 8. Arrange tomato slices on top. Sprinkle with paprika.
  • 9. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
  • 10. The next morning, heat over to 350 degrees. Remove plastic wrap and bake casserole 40 minutes or until center has set and edges are lightly browned.
  • 11. If desired, serve with sour cream and pico de gallo. I always make up a nice display of these ingredients on a pretty serving tray with a bed of romaine lettuce.

TEXAS BREAKFAST CASSEROLE

This breakfast casserole is good for any Sunday morning. Prepare it the night before and just throw it in the oven the next morning. It also has endless possibilities. You could add onions, crumbled cooked bacon, ham, and green and red peppers to this dish to make it even more tastier. I hope you enjoy. I found this recipe on Recipesource.com.
