Y’all, let me tell you about a breakfast recipe that’ll make your taste buds do the Texas two-step! As a Southern girl who takes her morning meals seriously, I’ve perfected this heavenly Texas-style breakfast casserole that’ll have your family rushing to the kitchen faster than a tumbleweed in a tornado.
This bad boy combines everything we love about breakfast – fluffy eggs, crispy hash browns, spicy chorizo, and enough cheese to make a dairy farmer blush. Trust me, honey, this isn’t your average breakfast casserole!
Here’s what you’ll need (and don’t you dare skimp on the ingredients!):
– 1 pound Mexican chorizo
– 1 package frozen hash browns (thawed)
– 8 large eggs
– 1 cup heavy cream
– 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
– 1 cup diced bell peppers
– 1/2 cup diced onions
– 2 jalapeños (seeded and diced)
– Salt and pepper to taste
– Your favorite hot sauce (optional, but are you even Texan if you skip it?)
Now, let’s get cookin’!
1. First things first, preheat that oven to 350°F. Grease a 9×13 baking dish while you’re at it.
1. Brown that chorizo in a skillet until it’s all crumbly and delicious. Drain the excess grease (save a little for flavor, y’all).
1. In the same skillet, sauté those peppers and onions until they’re tender. The aroma alone will have your neighbors knocking!

1. Layer those hash browns in your baking dish, top with the chorizo mixture, and sprinkle half the cheese.
1. Whisk together eggs and cream, season with salt and pepper, and pour over everything.
1. Top with remaining cheese and pop it in the oven for 45-50 minutes until golden brown and bubbly.
Let it cool for about 5 minutes before serving (I know it’s hard to wait, but them eggs are HOT!).
Serve it up with some fresh avocado slices, a dollop of sour cream, and extra hot sauce if you’re feeling spicy! This recipe serves 8-10 people, or 4 really hungry cowboys! 😉
Listen here, darlin’ – this casserole is perfect for weekend brunches, holiday mornings, or when you’re feeding a crowd. It’s even better the next day (if it lasts that long!).
