This Cheesy Chorizo Breakfast Bake is the perfect comfort food breakfast for a lazy weekday morning. It is also a great option for meal prep.
This Keto Cheesy Chorizo Breakfast Bake is one of my favorite lazy Saturday morning breakfasts. I love to whip this up on a weekend morning and then have it for breakfast all throughout the week. It is so good topped with sour cream and green onions. The cool creaminess of the sour cream compliments the spiciness of the chorizo perfectly.

Just pulled mine out of the oven and I can just tell how delicious it will be. I did end up using spicy italian sausage cause I couldn't find chorizo at the market. I did notice it said to saute onion and garlic for 20 mins. Is that a typo? Seemed really long so I just used my best judgement.

Love it! Adding cream cheese takes it to another level! Although I didn't have mushrooms or parmesan cheese, I thought this was great and very easy to make!

This recipe was really good. I substituted soy chorizo (12oz.) and used green peppers instead of mushrooms. Also used 8 eggs instead of 6. The cream cheese made it extra creamy. Thanks for the recipe.

Can this casserole be prepared the night before, refigerated and then baked in the morning?

My boyfriend is so obsessed with this recipe. I've made it for him pretty much every week for the last month. I actually use a muffin pan to make little portable egg muffins that easy to grab and go. The recipe is the perfect amount for 12 egg muffins.
