How to Make Baked Eggs
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a blender, combine 6 large eggs, 1/2 cup milk, and 1/4 cup sour cream. Blend until completely smooth.
- Grease a 9x13 inch baking pan.
- Evenly distribute 1 cup of diced cooked meat (e.g., bacon, sausage, chorizo) in the prepared pan.
- Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of chopped chives or onions and 1-2 jalapeños (minced), or your preferred chili, over the meat.
- In a bowl, gently mix the blended egg mixture with 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese (or your favorite cheese).
- Pour the egg and cheese mixture evenly over the meat and vegetables in the baking pan.
- Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the eggs are set and lightly golden brown. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out clean.
- Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy with warm tortillas, salsa, and sour cream!
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
