VEGETARIAN MEXICAN BREAKFAST CASSEROLE



Vegetarian Mexican Breakfast Casserole image

This is my vegetarian version of a Mexican breakfast casserole based on items I usually have in my fridge. Since I rarely keep cream or half-and-half, I decided to try cream cheese and was pleased with how it worked out. I think this recipe would lend itself well to different vegetables or adding meat.

Provided by Jones

Time 1h10m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 17

cooking spray
4 cups frozen hash brown potatoes, thawed
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 medium yellow onion, chopped
¼ teaspoon dried thyme
¼ teaspoon salt
⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper
4 ounces vegetarian sausage
1 medium bell pepper, chopped

2 large egg whites
1 ½ cups shredded Cheddar cheese
¼ teaspoon hot sauce

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a 9 1/2-inch square baking dish with cooking spray.
  • Press hash browns into the bottom and up the sides of the prepared dish. Spray with cooking spray and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until lightly browned and crisp all over, 35 to 45 minutes. Note that the top edges will brown very quickly and become very dark; you can cut that away it it becomes too dark.
  • When the hash browns are baking, heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion and cook until soft and translucent, 5 to 10 minutes. Add thyme, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon pepper; cook for 1 minute. Add sausage; cook and stir until crumbly and brown, 5 to 7 minutes. Add bell pepper and mushrooms; cook until mushrooms are tender, about 10 minutes. Drain any excess liquid from the skillet.
  • Remove hash browns from the oven. Scoop veggie mixture on top.
  • Combine 4 eggs and 2 egg whites in a bowl with Cheddar cheese and hot sauce. Mix until eggs just come together without being frothy. Pour over veggie mixture and spread evenly.
  • Return to the oven and bake until eggs are just set, 10 to 12 minutes.
  • Remove from the oven and spread sliced tomato over top. Lightly season with salt and pepper and sprinkle with parsley. Return to the oven for 1 minute.
  • Slide a spatula around the edges and slice into 8 pieces. Serve hot.

VEGETARIAN OVERNIGHT BREAKFAST CASSEROLE



Vegetarian Overnight Breakfast Casserole image

A vegetarian remake of the classic overnight breakfast sausage casserole. In addition to swapping out meat for vegetarian ingredients, I changed the spices from the standard version. If you don't like these ones, use your own favorites. Nutmeg and rubbed sage are a nice combination.

VEGETARIAN BREAKFAST CASSEROLE



Vegetarian Breakfast Casserole image

This is a delicious breakfast casserole that has lots of vegetables and is meat-free. I make this for guests, potluck brunches, and Christmas morning. This recipe is very flexible. Feel free to use any type of bread or cheese you have on hand, and add or remove vegetables to suit your preferences. I recommend serving with fruit for a nice balanced breakfast! Don't worry if the recipe makes too much, just reheat in the microwave; it's still good for breakfast or lunch the next day.

VEGETARIAN CHORIZO BREAKFAST CASSEROLE



Vegetarian Chorizo Breakfast Casserole image

I never thought about having a taco for breakfast until I moved to Texas. Now, I can't imagine NOT making a taco for breakfast! I make this casserole on the weekend and keep it in the fridge. Then my husband and I take out what we want in the morning, heat it in the microwave, and throw it in a whole wheat or regular tortilla with some salsa or verde sauce. We we are out the door with a healthy breakfast in no time! He didn't realize it was soy chorizo until after I had made this about 6 or 7 times. You can serve the casserole as it is for breakfast, or use it as a great taco or burrito filling for a grab and go breakfast.

Provided by CookingBlues

Categories     < 60 Mins

Time 55m

Yield 6-8 breakfast tacos, 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

nonstick cooking spray
3 cups o'brien frozen potatoes
3/4 cup monterey jack cheese or 3/4 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
1 (10 ounce) soy chorizo, I like Cacique brand
1 cup fat-free liquid egg product
1 1/2 cups skim milk
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Coat a 2 quart square baking dish with cooking spray. Arrange O'Brien potatoes evenly on the bottom of the dish.
  • Layer the cheese, then add the soy chorizo on top of the frozen potatoes. You don't need to cook the soy chorizo, since it will bake in the casserole. Just add it straight from the package to the dish.
  • NOTE: if you want more veggies, you can add a layer of pico de gallo on top of the cheese, then top with the soy chorizo.
  • In a medium bowl combine the egg product, milk, and about 1/8 teaspoons salt and pepper. Mix together then pour over the other layers in the dish.
  • Bake in the oven uncovered at 350 for 40 minutes, or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean. If serving immediately, let this stand for 5 minutes before serving.
  • If using this through the week, let this cool then cover and put in the fridge.

Yield 4 people

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 slices whole wheat bread, cubed into 1/4 pieces
2 potatoes (your choice) approx. 150g each, diced small
5 large eggs
1/4 cup milk
1/4 cup grated cheddar cheese
1/2 yellow onion, diced small
1 cup baby spinach, washed and chopped
1 tsp curry powder
Butter (to sauté with)
Salt and pepper (to taste)
Hot sauce (to taste)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. After peeling the potatoes, dice them into small pieces and place them in a medium pot. Fill the pot with water until the water is about 1" above the potatoes. Cover and keep over medium/low heat to steam until the potatoes are tender. Dice the onion into very small pieces. In a medium skillet, melt a small amount of butter over low heat. Add the onions and the curry powder to the butter, and sauté until the onions are soft. Drain the potatoes and add to the onions, cooking until the potatoes are lightly browned. Make sure everything is well incorporated, and then set mixture aside. After washing the spinach, chop it into small pieces and set aside in a bowl. Grate the cheddar cheese and add it to the bowl as well. Cube the slices of bread. In a medium/large skillet, melt a small amount of butter over low heat. Add the bread cubes to the skillet and stir to evenly mix the butter amongst the pieces. Once the cubes are a little crispy but not browned, place them in a bowl and set aside. Lightly grease a glass baking pan with cooking spray (or butter if you don't have any). For a taller casserole, use a smaller pan. Spread half the pieces of bread evenly on the bottom of the pan. In a large bowl, mix together the eggs and the milk. Pour into the skillet the bread was in and scramble the eggs until they are firm, but still wet. If you like, season them with salt and pepper. Begin layering the ingredients on top of the first layer of bread, beginning with the potato and onion mixture, then the egg, and then the spinach and cheese. Use approximately a third of each component for each layer. Once you've finished layering, top the entire thing with the remaining bread. Bake in the oven until the cheese is melted and the bread is lightly browned (approx. 10-15 min). Season with additional salt and pepper if you wish, or add hot sauce to taste. Enjoy!
