Directions

  1. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir sausage in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes, drain and discard grease.

  2. Grease a 10x9-inch baking dish. Layer half the tortilla pieces into the bottom of the prepared dish, top with 2 cans green chilies, half the cooked sausage, and half the cheese, respectively. Repeat layering.

  3. Beat eggs, milk, salt, garlic salt, onion salt, black pepper, and cumin together in a bowl, pour over the layers in the baking dish.

  4. Cover baking dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate 8 hours to overnight.

  5. Remove dish from refrigerator and let warm at room temperature for 30 minutes.

  6. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

  7. Bake the casserole bake in the preheated oven for 50 minutes. Arrange a layer of tomato slices atop the casserole and continue baking until a knife inserted into the middle of the casserole comes out clean, 10 to 15 minutes more. Let casserole cool 10 minutes before cutting.

Recipe Note

Great to serve for weekend guests because you can get it ready in advance and have coffee or maybe a bloody mary with your guests while your breakfast cooks. Great served with sour cream and home made salsa.
