How to Make Breakfast Enchilada Eggs

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish with cooking spray.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine corn muffin mix, undrained diced green chilies, 1 large egg, and shredded cheddar cheese. Mix well.
  3. Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the base is set.
  4. While the base is baking, gently warm the refried beans over medium-low heat until easily spreadable.
  5. Once the base is set, evenly pour the enchilada sauce over the top.
  6. Spoon the warmed refried beans down the center of the baking dish, lengthwise and crosswise, dividing the pan into four sections.
  7. Crack 1 large egg into each of the four bean-divided sections.
  8. Bake for another 12-15 minutes, or until the eggs are cooked through to your liking.
  9. Garnish with chopped cilantro and Mexican blend cheese, if desired. Let cool slightly before serving.
