Ingredients
- one pound fresh pork sausage casings removed
- one medium/large sweet Vidalia onion
- one 1.25-ounce packet taco seasoning I used reduced sodium medium heat
- 8 large eggs
- ⅓ cup Horizon Organic Whole Milk
- 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- two 6-ounce packages Horizon Organic Mexican Style Shredded Cheese divided
- ¾ cup red bell pepper diced small
- half of 1 Hass avocado diced
- cilantro for garnishing (green onions may be substituted)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375F and spray a large casserole or baking dish with cooking spray; set aside.
- To a large skillet, add the sausage, onion, and cook over medium high heat for about 5 to 7 minutes, or until sausage is cooked through and no longer pink; stir intermittently and crumble sausage as it cooks.
- Evenly sprinkle with taco seasoning and stir to combine.
- Transfer sausage and onion mixture to prepared baking dish and form an even flat layer; set aside.
- To a large bowl, add the eggs, milk, pepper, and whisk to combine.
- Add one package of cheese, bell pepper, and stir to combine.
- Pour the egg mixture over the sausage in the baking dish.
- Evenly sprinkle the second package of cheese over the top and bake for about 30 to 35 minutes, or until cheese is as lightly golden browned as desired. I baked for 35 minutes because I like the cheese on the darker side but bake as long as necessary noting that all climates, ingredients, and sizes/shapes of baking dishes differ so baking time will vary.
- Evenly top with avocado and cilantro before serving. Dish is best fresh but will keep airtight in the fridge for up to 5 days.
