Breakfast Enchiladas
Description
This recipe builds a hearty breakfast casserole as sausage mixed with shredded cheddar and bacon bits is rolled inside flour tortillas. The filled tortillas are arranged seam-side down in a greased 13x9 inch pan. A custard made from beaten eggs, half-and-half, flour, and salt is poured evenly over the rolls, soaking into the tortillas and filling. The dish can be prepared ahead and refrigerated or baked immediately. When baked at 350°F, the casserole is covered initially to help set the filling, then uncovered to melt and lightly brown the cheese topping. Baking continues until the eggs are set and cheese is fully melted.
The result is a savory, firm yet creamy layered breakfast dish with layers of seasoned sausage, melted cheese, and bacon throughout. The softened tortillas hold the filling, creating individual enchilada-style rolls within a cohesive casserole. This dish is suitable for feeding a group or preparing breakfast in advance.
