Ingredients
Original recipe (1X) yields 8 servings
-
cooking spray
-
1 medium onion, chopped
-
5 cups shredded hash brown potatoes
-
3 cups diced ham
-
2 cups shredded taco-flavored cheese
-
1 (7 ounce) can diced green chile peppers
-
8 large eggs
-
1 cup milk
-
1 cup sour cream
-
1 teaspoon taco seasoning mix, or more to taste
-
1 cup shredded Mexican blend cheese
Directions
-
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a 9×13-inch pan with cooking spray.
-
Spray a small pan with cooking spray and heat over medium heat; stir in onion. Cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes.
-
Transfer onions to a large bowl and mix in hash browns, ham, taco-flavored cheese, and chile peppers. Layer in the bottom of the prepared pan.
-
Whisk eggs, milk, sour cream, and taco seasoning together in a bowl. Pour on top of the hash brown layer.
-
Bake in the preheated oven until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean, 45 to 60 minutes; check every 5 minutes toward the end.
-
Remove from the oven and spread Mexican cheese on top. Return to the oven and bake until cheese is melted, about 3 minutes. Let casserole stand for 5 minutes to set before serving.
