Ingredients
1/2 pound breakfast sausage
6 large Eggland's Best eggs
2 teaspoons milk
salt and black pepper, to taste
11 ounce bag tortilla chips
3 cups shredded cheddar or Mexican blend cheese, divided
15 ounce can black beans, rinsed and drained (can use pinto beans)
1/4 cup diced red onion
2 tomatoes, diced
1/2 cup sliced jalapeño peppers
2 tablespoons freshly chopped cilantro
For serving: salsa, hot sauce, sour cream, optional
Preparation
- Preheat oven to broil. Grab a baking sheet. Set aside.
- In a medium skillet, cook the breakfast sausage over medium-high heat, until sausage is browned, about 5 minutes. With a slotted spoon, transfer sausage to paper towels to drain.
- Crack the eggs into a medium bowl and add milk. Whisk until well combined. Add a little butter to a medium nonstick skillet and turn the heat to medium-low. Add the eggs. Remove the pan from the heat when the eggs are mostly set, but a little liquid egg remains. Slightly undercook the eggs because they will continue cooking in the oven. Season with salt and pepper, to taste, and set aside.
- Place the tortilla chips in an even layer on the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle half of the cheese evenly over the chips. Add the cooked sausage, scrambled eggs, and beans. Sprinkle with remaining cheese and red onion.
- Broil until the cheese melts, about 2 minutes. Don’t walk away. Make sure you keep an eye on the nachos as broilers vary and yours may take less time or a little more time.
- Remove the nachos from the oven and top with tomatoes, jalapeno slices, and cilantro. Serve immediately with salsa, hot sauce, and sour cream, if desired.
