Ingredients
  

8 large eggs

1 cup milk

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

1 cup diced Hatch green chilies (fresh or roasted)

1 cup breakfast sausage (cooked and crumbled)

1 cup diced bell pepper (any color)

1/2 cup diced onion

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon cumin

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

1 cup diced tomatoes (fresh or canned, drained)

Cooking spray or olive oil for greasing

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a muffin tin with cooking spray or olive oil to prevent sticking.

    Cook the Sausage: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the breakfast sausage until browned and crumbled. Drain excess fat and set aside.

      Sauté the Veggies: In the same skillet, add diced onion and bell pepper. Sauté until the onion is translucent and the bell pepper is tender, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic powder, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Stir to combine and remove from heat.

        Prepare the Egg Mixture: In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until fully combined. Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese, Hatch chilies, diced tomatoes, cooked sausage, and sautéed vegetables. Mix until everything is evenly distributed.

          Fill the Muffin Tin: Pour the egg mixture into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about three-quarters full. This will allow them to rise without overflowing.

            Bake: Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the casseroles are puffed up and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

              Cool and Serve: Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes. Use a butter knife to gently loosen the edges, then carefully lift the casserole cups out of the muffin tin. Serve warm.

                Garnish (Optional): If desired, top with fresh cilantro, a dollop of sour cream, or sliced avocado for an extra touch.
