One thing I love is breakfast casseroles, and this one has all the delicious flavors of a jalapeño popper. This jalapeño popper breakfast casserole has eggs, cheese, bacon, cream cheese, and jalapeños in it, perfect for a crowd or to meal prep for the week!
This is a quick and easy recipe, taking less than 10 minutes to throw together… seriously I think it took longer to preheat the oven than prep this recipe!
HOW TO MAKE CASSEROLE:
*Note full printable recipe at the bottom of this post.
1: In a large bowl crack eggs, add cream, seasonings and mix well. Pour into baking dish.
2: Add shredded sharp cheddar cheese.
3: Add cubed cream cheese.
4: Add crumbled bacon.
5: Top with jalapeños.
6: Bake.
HOW TO STORE & REHEAT:
Eggs reheat very well so I just let the casserole cool and place it in the refrigerator. During the week I either reheat a portion in the microwave or in the toaster oven. It’s delicious alone or you can place it between an English muffin if you’re not doing a low carb diet.

April 24, 2019 at 2:16 amI’m going to make this tomorrow to take to work on Thursday morning. The other two ladies and I are all doing low carb. I’m doing keto with 20g carbs daily and so is one of my coworkers. The other has diverticulitis and cannot have that much fat but she does what she can. They will LOVE this made with sausage.
