1 (10-oz.) can cream of chicken soup
1 pint sour cream
1/2 cup scallions/green onions
1/2 cup cilantro (optional)
1 or 2 jalapeno peppers seeded and chopped (optional) You can add a small can of diced green chiles

8 eggs beaten
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper

Your baking time could take up to 70 minutes depending on the type of pan you use. Check the casserole initially at 45 minutes and continue cooking till cooked through if needed.

Note: I put this in a pan that was too small and it was filled to the brim and took 90 minutes to bake. I suggest you put it in a larger pan and watch it after 45 minutes.

Breakfast Lasagna

 

Breakfast Lasagna

(This recipe yields 8 servings)  

1 bag frozen hash browns
1 1/2 pounds Canadian Bacon — sliced
1 onion — chopped
1 green pepper — chopped
1 yellow pepper — chopped
1 cups mushrooms — sliced (1 to 2)
5 eggs
1 cup milk
1 1/2 cups sharp cheese — grated (1 1/2 to 2)
salt and pepper to taste.

Preheat Oven to 350 degrees (F). Layer frozen hash browns in a 9 x 11-inch lasagna pan; season very well with salt and pepper. Layer green, yellow pepper and onions over hash browns; layer mushroom slices on top.

Cook bacon until crispy; place over mushroom layer. Beat eggs and milk and salt. Pour egg mixture over bacon; spread grated cheese on top. Bake at 350 degrees for 30 – 40 minutes.

I sauteed the onion, peppers and mushrooms then drained the excess liquid off and just layered them over the hash browns. I also used chopped ham instead of canadian bacon. I used a 9×13 baking dish. This had great flavors and was very tasty but it seemed to get runny as it sat. I’ll try it again just as the recipe reads and see if it’s still runny. :0)
