Mexican Lasagna Breakfast Casserole
Ingredients:
- 8 large eggs
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 pound breakfast sausage
- 1 cup diced bell peppers any color
- 1 cup diced onions
- 1 cup diced tomatoes
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
- 1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1/2 teaspoon cumin
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 6 large flour tortillas
- Salsa and sour cream for serving optional
Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 350F 175C
In a large skillet, cook the breakfast sausage over medium heat, breaking it up into crumbles as it cooks
Once it's browned and cooked through, remove it from the skillet and set aside
In the same skillet, saut the diced bell peppers and onions until they are soft and translucent
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper
To assemble the casserole, spread a small amount of the egg mixture in the bottom of a greased 9x13 inch baking dish
Place two tortillas on the bottom, overlapping as needed to cover the surface
Layer half of the cooked sausage, bell peppers, onions, tomatoes, cilantro, and shredded cheeses over the tortillas
Pour half of the egg mixture over the layers
Repeat the layers with the remaining ingredients, ending with a final layer of tortillas on top
Pour the remaining egg mixture over the top layer of tortillas and sprinkle with extra cheese if desired
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes or until the casserole is set and the top is golden brown
Allow it to cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving
Serve with salsa and sour cream if desired
Enjoy your Mexican Lasagna Breakfast Casserole!
