Easy Breakfast Enchiladas 

These easy breakfast enchiladas are perfect for making the night before for a hearty and delicious breakfast!

I love making food from scratch – there are few things more satisfying that a delicious, home-cooked meal.

But let’s be real – that’s not always possible! And really, I don’t think that we need to exert ourselves every night (or morning) to make sure everything on the table is farm fresh and from scratch.

I’ll be the first to admit that frozen foods can really make your meal planning and preparation easier. There are so many options – we especially love to use frozen vegetables in our meals (and as side dishes).

I often buy frozen foods at our local King Soopers because they have a huge variety of versatile products…including the items I used in this recipe.

I’m a big fan of breakfast, but as I’ve mentioned before, I rarely actually get up early enough to make something beyond toast and eggs or cereal. So I really like when I can make something the night before (as I’m much more of a night owl) that I can pop in the oven the next day.

I recently came up with this creamy breakfast enchiladas, and they are DELICIOUS. Here is a text exchange between Forrest and me about them:

If you know Forrest, he doesn’t often say “loved” lightly (unlike Jack and me – we tend to overuse the word ;-).

So you know these are good. My sister-in-law, Doris, said that was tasty and versatile, and that it could be for dinner as well. Who doesn’t love breakfast for dinner?!

I just used a couple of packages of frozen Jimmy Dean Breakfast bowls (I used the chorizo, sausage, and peppers variety), along with a package of forzen Birds Eye Protein Blends: Southwest Style to make the filling for these enchiladas. Two easy-to-find frozen foods!

Then, I added some cheese and created a simple sauce using Crema (Mexican Table Cream) and green enchilada sauce. Seriously SO easy to put together, and they turned out delicious. I had a hard time get a bite when I was sharing my plate with Oliver and my niece, Esther.

These can easily be made the night before and refrigerated for a fast and easy breakfast.

(to make them a little better for you, you can use the Jimmy Dean turkey sausage breakfast bowl!)
