Fluffy green chili eggs topped with crunchy tortilla chips makes for a surprising and delicious breakfast dish.  Green Chili Egg Casserole will quickly become a family favorite.

I love to stay at bed & breakfasts when I travel.  Quaint hotels and good food is the perfect combination to make my heart happy.  And I love it even more when they share their recipes with me when we check out.

One of the best breakfasts I have enjoyed at a B&B was in my own backyard,  The Lion and Rose Victorian B & B.  When I stayed there with a group of girlfriends we were served this delicious green chili egg casserole. They were the lightest and fluffiest eggs with a delicious Mexican flavor.  And they were topped with crunchy tortilla chips!

The recipe may seem a little strange but trust me on this one.  You blend everything up in the blender and then cook the eggs up in a frying pan.

Egg casserole ingredients eggs cottage cheese spices in a blender Place the cooked eggs into a baking dish and sprinkle with cheese and chilies and bake. I used my cast iron pan because  it sits on my stove top and it is easy to grab but you could definitely use a 8 x 8 baking pan.

And after you take it out of the oven you sprinkle the green chili egg casserole with chips, salsa and a little avocado and serve. I promise, these are delicious and fluffy and you will love them!

Some of my favorite kitchen tools I use to make Green Chili Egg Casserole:

CAST IRON SKILLET – I have an assortment of sizes but the 10 inch is my most used cast iron pan.

8 x 8 GLASS PAN – I prefer baking in glass over metal and these are the glass pans I love.  I have them all different sizes

    I love your blog- I am a college student at BYUI and have been following you for a few months, I love all the recipes and cute things you post!
    I was just wondering- what type of camera do you use to take your pictures of the foods once you make them? I am looking for a camera that can do clear close ups like that and I really don’t know where to start.

    Thanks!

      So glad you enjoy the blog! I use a Nikon D40 and I also have a D90 and I go back and forth between the too. I have found that the most helpful thing though is good lighting! I never use a flash.

    Thanks for sharing this recipe! B&Bs have some great ways to serve eggs. I’m a fan of anything with green chiles.

    I’d love this recipe, I’m sure. Thanks Leigh Anne. Also, thanks for NOT including the Blood Pudding recipe here. 😉

    That’s so funny. My husband served in Ireland, and he had to eat blood pudding at his first dinner appointment. Very memorable.
