How to Make Tex-Mex Style Breakfast Casserole

Step 1:

Start by cooking the bacon in a skillet until crispy, then place on a plate lined with paper towel. Once done, remove the bacon grease.

Step 2:

In the same skillet, add the sausage and cook until browned for about 5 minutes.

Step 3:

While waiting for the sausage to brown, spray some cooking spray in a casserole dish and add the pieces of bread. Set aside.

Step 4:

Once the sausage is browned, add the onions, jalapeno, green peppers, and red peppers. Cook until the onions are translucent. Add the garlic and cook for a few seconds. Turn off the heat.

Step 5:

Add the sausage over the bread pieces, then sprinkle some of the bacon on top (reserve for the toppings).

Step 6:

Beat the eggs in a bowl, then add the milk, half and half, Dijon mustard, some of the cheese, pepper, and salt. Mix them all together, then carefully pour into the casserole dish. Push them down a little bit. Sprinkle more cheese on top and the reserved bacon pieces. Cover with cling wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.

Step 7:

Remove the cling wrap then cover with aluminum foil. Place in a 350F preheated oven and bake for 40 minutes. Remove the foil, then put back inside the oven. Bake for 15 minutes more.

Step 8:

Once done baking, let it sit for 15 minutes before cutting. Enjoy!
