    How to Make Vegetarian Breakfast Enchiladas

    You are going to love this delicious Mexican breakfast casserole. It's sooo good, and it's simple to make, too!

    The first step is making the filling. It's a tasty combination of crispy spiced potatoes, black beans, chiles, and scrambled eggs. Plus, cheese ... lots of ooey gooey cheese.

    That yummy filling gets wrapped up in corn tortillas, then you'll finish the dish with a creamy green sauce that only takes two ingredients to make.

    And of course, more cheese!

    Bake this vegetarian breakfast casserole until it's hot and golden around the edges, then it's time to dig in!

    I like to top these Vegetarian Breakfast Enchiladas topped with fresh tomato and cilantro (avocado would be delish, too). The bright flavors from the tomato and cilantro are the perfect counterpoint to all that rich cheese and the creamy sauce.

    Serve your Vegetarian Breakfast Enchiladas for a special breakfast or brunch. This is one recipe your whole family is sure to love!

    Ingredients

    For Filling:

    • 1 tablespoon + 2 teaspoons olive oil, divided
    • 1 large red potato, diced
    • 1 teaspoon chili powder
    • ½ teaspoon cumin
    • ¼ teaspoon oregano
    • salt
    • pepper
    • 8 large eggs, beaten and seasoned with salt and pepper
    • 1 cup black beans (drained and rinsed)
    • 1 (4-ounce) can chopped green chiles, excess liquid drained
    • 2 cups shredded pepper jack, divided

    For Enchiladas:

    • 1 (16-ounce) jar green salsa
    • 1 cup sour cream
    • nonstick spray
    • 12 small corn tortillas

    For Topping:

    • 1 medium tomato, diced
    • 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro

    Instructions

    • Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

    Prepare Filling:

    • Heat 1 tbsp of olive oil in a large frying pan over medium heat.
    • Add potato to pan and cooking, stirring occasionally, until golden and crispy (about 15 to 20 minutes).
    • Stir chili powder, cumin, and oregano into potatoes, and season generously with salt. Cook until spices are fragrant and toasted, about 1 to 2 minutes.
    • Transfer potatoes to a plate, then wipe out pan. Return pan to burner; add 2 tsp olive oil and heat over medium.
    • Add eggs to pan and scramble. Do not overcook.
    • Remove pan from heat, then stir black beans, green chiles, and potatoes into eggs. Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper, if desired.
    • Fold 1 cup pepper jack into egg mixture.

    Assemble Enchiladas:

    • In a medium bowl, whisk together sour cream and about half the salsa. When smooth, whisk in remaining salsa.
    • Spray a 9 x 13-inch baking pan lightly with nonstick spray, then coat bottom with a layer of salsa sauce.
    • Wrap 4 tortillas in a damp paper towel, then a dry paper towel. Microwave for 45 seconds or until hot and flexible. (Be careful not to burn yourself.)
    • Place 1/12 of egg mixture on the bottom of a warmed tortilla, then roll up and place seam side down in baking pan. Repeat process with remaining filling and tortillas (heating more tortillas, as needed).
    • Cover enchiladas with remaining salsa sauce, then sprinkle with remaining pepper jack.
    • Bake enchiladas for 20 minutes or until hot and golden brown around edges.

    Serving:

    • Serve enchiladas hot, sprinkled with tomatoes and cilantro. Enjoy!

    Notes

    Make these enchiladas as hot or as mild as you prefer, by using mild, medium, or hot diced chiles and green salsa.
