Fully Loaded Baked Southwest Breakfast Taquitos

After that time with the kids, I decided that I was going to make and take these to a church brunch. We were expecting about 30 people, so I had to adjust the recipe. The one thing that worked in my favor was the fact that I could make these ahead of time and freeze them. Then, on the day of the event, I pulled them out and cooked them up. When they were done, I just tossed them in a slow cooker on warm and they stayed toasted for the entire meal. Check out what they are saying about this recipe over at Julie’s Eats & Treats:

“Versatile. You can get creative as you want with these! Let your imagination go wild.”

Ingredients
8 Johnsonville Sausage, links
1 Avocado
1/2 cup Bell peppers
1 (4oz) can Green chiles, mild
1 1/2 cups Potatoes, frozen
6 Eggs, large
1 cup Chi-Chi’s Salsa, medium (or mild)
1/2 tsp Black pepper
1/2 tsp Seasoned salt
3 tbsp Olive oil
8 Flour tortillas, medium sized
1/2 cup Kraft Cheddar cheese
3 tbsp Milk
1/2 cup Pepper jack cheese
1 Daisy Sour cream

 

Instructions

Preheat oven to 425 degrees and line a large baking sheet with foil.

In a medium skillet, cook potatoes and 2 Tbsp olive oil over medium heat. Once the potatoes start to turn golden brown (about 4-5 minutes cooking in the pan), flip the potatoes, and add in bell peppers, seasoned salt, and black pepper. Cook until the other side of the potatoes are golden brown (about 4-5 minutes). Add in green chiles; stir. Turn off the heat.

Whisk the eggs and milk together, and cook on med-low heat, until eggs are just scrambled (the eggs will continue to cook in the oven, so you want them slightly underdone).

On each tortilla, spoon about 3-4 Tbsp of the potato, pepper, and chile mixture. Add in eggs (about 2-3 Tbsp in each tortilla), sausage, shredded cheese (about 2 Tbsp per tortilla), and salsa (about 2 Tbsp per tortilla).

Roll each tortilla up tightly, and place on the baking sheet, seam-side down. Brush each taquito with remaining Tbsp of olive oil (optional, but this will help each taquito to brown evenly).

Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown. With a pair of tongs, flip each taquito over, and bake for 10 minutes.

Serve with salsa, sour cream, avocado, or extra cheese, if desired.

Enjoy!
