A few of my other favorite make ahead breakfast casseroles are Sausage & Cheese Hash Brown Breakfast Casserole and Biscuits and Gravy Overnight Breakfast Casserole! Both of these are overnight breakfast casseroles so Mom can sleep a little bit longer. Trust me, this makes the entire family happy and they still get their breakfast made!

A couple weekends ago we headed up to the cabin with my mom and dad for a relaxing weekend. The guys were going to try the ice fishing up there and us girls were just going to hang out and do a little shopping. It sounded great. We could just relax and do whatever we wanted and not have a worry.
This sounded great until the hubby came down with a bad cold a couple days before we left. He decided he was good enough to go so we still went. Saturday morning the guys headed out to the lake and us girls left to do some shopping. Throughout the morning I thought my throat was a little dry but blamed it conveniently on the cabin and hoping it was just dry in there. As the day wore on the sicker I became until that night I was shivering, exhausted and aching. Fun stuff. Off to bed I went.
The next day I felt terrible still but the aches were gone I just had a terrible sore throat. This went on for a couple days then it moved to my head. Ugh. Seriously. Could the chest cold not be enough. Nope. Everything started draining. Lovely picture I’m painting here isn’t it? It seems like so many people are sick right now. I’m so ready for spring.
It’s only the middle of January. *SIGH*
If you are looking for a breakfast to warm you up in the bitterly cold January winter here one is. It’s a bit of a fun twist on a regular old egg bake. You can switch the meat for whatever you like or have on hand. I was worried the tortillas were going to be soggy if I put the eggs in the night before but I did it anyways and it was awesome! The eggs run into the tortillas and it’s so yummy!

Love this recipe. made it for Mother’s day and again this morning. I plan on changing it up a bit in the future like adding morning star crumbles with some chopped veggies for my sister un law cause she does not eat meat or even chili and cheese in the middle. The options are endless!
Those all sound amazing! It’s definitely a versatile recipe, so glad you love it!
Very easy and delicious!!!!
Thanks, Nichole!
Amazing! I added a can of diced Chile’s. Half with the sausage and half in the egg mixture. Also included a couple shakes of paprika.
For the question above. I didn’t have 1/2 & 1/2 so used 1 cup heavy whipping cream and 1 cup milk and loved it!
So glad you loved it! And thanks for sharing that your 1/2 and 1/2 mixture worked!
I think this would be great but I’d like to leave flour out or replace flour with almond flour. Would their option work? Thanks
You could replace it with almond flour.
Would it be possible to freeze this? At what point would be best to freeze?
I think it would work fine to freeze. Cover it tightly and freeze it when you would refrigerate it in the recipe.
I would like to make this gluten-free. Has anyone tried this with corn tortillas?
I haven’t tried it but I think it would work fine!
Works well with chorizo. And use corn tortillas instead of flour ones.
I changed it slightly… I cooked bacon and crushed it up into bits.. I think it works better because the bacon is fresh. I also used hot sausage to boost the flavor and added some spices to the mix. It is seriously my husbands favorite thing! I made them for a friend while I was visiting and now they are asking when I can come back😂😆
That’s awesome! The bacon bits just save a couple steps, making it with cooked bacon sounds great!
What spices? My fam likes a kick to everything.
Last month I made these for a work breakfast. Let me just say this dish is absolutely delishious. Even one person who barely likes anything anyone brings was raving over it and requested me to bring this for the next birthday work breakfast (which is tomorrow). I love the fact that I can prepare it the night before and just bake in the morning. Thanks so much for sharing your recipe!! It is a HIT!!
Thanks for your review, Lisa! I’m so glad it’s a hit with everyone.
I usually don’t rate but I needed to on this one. As written this is a 3 star as it is so blah in flavor. Spiced up it might be good. I won’t fix it again, sorry
I’m sorry it wasn’t up to your expectations.
Could I use milk in place of the half and half? Or a combination of milk and heavy cream?
I haven’t tested it with anything other than half and half but you could try 1 cup of milk and 1 cup of heavy cream instead.
May you include metrics measurements please I’m Definitely making this on Saturday for breakfast for my family !!!
I found this website that might help with converting to metric. I hope everyone enjoys it!

Looks delicious. Making it for Thursday morning celebrating our 2nd Christmas.
Hope it turns out great!
I made this for the family’s annual Christmas Eve breakfast. Everyone raved about them! I made 2 changes, I added some chopped sautéed onions to the filling and instead of cheddar cheese I used the 4 cheese Mexican blend. I will use his recipe for brunches in the future. Thanks for sharing this awesome recipe!
You’re welcome, Barb! I’m so happy it was a hit!
This is one of our favorite family recipes. Each enchilada gets 1/3 cup of the filling. (Add that that to the recipe for future pinners.) 😋
So glad you love it! Thanks for the rating and review!
It is wonderful!
Glad you enjoyed them!
