I make a giant batch of breakfast casserole every week so that my kids have a hot breakfast every morning.  They get tired of cereal and oatmeal and love eggs, so one minute in the microwave and they have a filling breakfast to get through the day. 

You can use either the shredded hash browns or the O’Brien potatoes.  Both work great in this recipe.  My household is divided on this matter half like the diced potatoes, half prefer the shredded.

How to Make a Green Chile Egg & Potato Casserole

Such an easy recipe to assemble, you’ll whisk some eggs, saute some veggies and mix everything together in a baking dish to bake. 

Preheat the oven to 400° F. 

Generously butter a 3 quart or 9×13 baking dish to ensure the eggs and potatoes don’t stick. 

Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon olive oil

Add the diced onions and peppers to the skillet and saute until soft.  Season with salt and pepper. 

In a large bowl, beat the eggs until frothy.  Add diced green chiles, shredded cheese, and milk.

Spread the hash brown potatoes on the bottom of the baking dish, add the cooked veggies and pour the egg mixture over the potatoes and veggies.  Stir to combine.  Top with extra shredded cheese to have a cheesy top. 

Bake the casserole for 50 minutes at 400° F.  Serve immediately or keep warm in the oven until serving.
