Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Chorizo Egg Bake
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Place a skillet over medium heat and add ground chorizo. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes until browned and fully cooked. Drain excess fat.
  3. Chop the jalapeño, green and red peppers, and white onion into bite-sized pieces.
  4. Coat a 9"x13" baking dish with a light spray of oil and layer the bottom with frozen hash browns.
  5. In a large mixing bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them until frothy. Stir in almond milk, salt, and pepper. Fold in the cooked chorizo and chopped vegetables.
  6. Pour the egg mixture over the layer of hash browns in the baking dish.
  7. Place in the preheated oven and bake for about 50 minutes until the center is set and no liquid egg remains.
  8. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Slice into squares and serve warm.
