Egg And Tortilla Chip Bake Recipes

BAKED TORTILLA CHIPS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F. Spray a large baking sheet with cooking spray.
• Cut each tortilla into 8 equal wedges with a sharp knife or pizza cutter. Arrange tortilla wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Spray the wedges with cooking spray and sprinkle each one with a little sea salt or kosher salt.
• Bake chips on the top rack of the oven for 10-12 minutes, rotating the baking sheet halfway through, until chips are crispy and starting to turn light brown in spots. Oven temperatures vary so if your chips are crispy enough halfway through the baking time, go ahead and remove them.
• Remove from oven and let chips rest on baking sheet for about 5 minutes before serving. Repeat with remaining wedges or bake them on multiple baking sheets at the same time, rotating which shelf the baking sheets are on halfway through baking time as well.

TORTILLA BREAKFAST BAKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Heat the olive oil in a 10-inch cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot, add the mushrooms, onions and bell peppers. Cook until slightly charred, 3 to 4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Turn off the heat and stir in the spinach. Remove the veggie mix to a plate.
• Add the tortilla to the skillet, pressing it lightly to touch the bottom. Top the tortilla with two-thirds of the cheese and the reserved veggie mix. Crack the eggs over the top and cover with the remaining cheese. Sprinkle the yolks with salt and pepper.
• Bake until the cheese has melted and the whites of the eggs have set, 15 to 17 minutes for a runny yolk, 20 to 22 minutes for a firmer yolk.
• Transfer the tortilla to a cutting board or platter. Top with the green onions and hot sauce. Slice into wedges and serve.

THE BEST BREAKFAST EGG BAKE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Spray a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sausage and cook, breaking it up and stirring with a wooden spoon, until the sausage is no longer pink and is crispy and brown in spots, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat.
• Whisk the sour cream, heavy cream, ground mustard, garlic salt, kosher salt, black pepper and eggs together in a large bowl. Add the sausage, hash browns, both cheeses, bell pepper and scallions (reserving 2 tablespoons of scallions for serving) to the egg mixture. Fold to combine.
• Unroll the crescent dough and press it into the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Dock or pierce the dough with a fork, making sure the entire sheet of dough is evenly docked with holes. Pour the egg mixture over the dough and spread it evenly into the dish. Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 40 minutes. Remove the foil. The egg should be somewhat set, but still wet and light in color. Return to the oven and bake uncovered until the egg is completely set and it is browned on the top and sides, 20 to 25 minutes.
• Let the bake rest for at least 10 minutes. Sprinkle with the reserved scallions and serve warm or room temperature.
