Bagel & Chorizo Egg Casserole

By Gregg

Great for brunch and those that like a little spicy with eggs and bagel.

Ingredients

• 1 Pound Chorizo Sausage
• 2 Bagels, toasted and cut into large cubes
• 2 1/2 Cups Shredded provolone cheese (I mix some cheddar in the mix)
• 1 Cup Parmesan cheese
• 8 Eggs
• 2 Cups half-and-half cream
• Big Pinch Oregano
• Big Pinch Garlic powder
• Big Pinch Dehydrated Onions
• Pinch of Paprika
• Pinch of salt
• Pinch of pepper

Preparation

Step 1

In a large skillet, cook the chorizo sausage over medium heat until crisp and then drain (I put paper towels in bowl and then put sausage it to soak up oil). Season the bagel croutons with salt, pepper, and paprika, and then place the them on the bottom of a greased baking dish. Sprinkle with the cheeses and the sausage. In a large bowl, whisk the remaining ingredients together and pour over the casserole. Cover and refrigerate overnight.

The next day, preheat the oven to 350 degrees

Remove from the refrigerator 30 minutes before baking. Bake, uncovered, for 40-45 minutes or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean. Let stand for 10 minutes before serving.
