It's no secret that I am seriously in love with breakfast foods, and if you checked out my Cheesy Cajun Chicken Alfredo Pasta recipe, you also know how much I enjoy anything with a bit of spiciness to it! While this Southwestern Style Egg Bake is definitely not super spicy, it has just enough of a Southwest-inspired flair to make my tastebuds happy!
Originally, I was planning to make this recipe with breakfast sausage, but instead I opted for ground beef with onions, garlic, and several spices mixed in so I could achieve exactly the taste I was wanting!
If you like eggs, hashbrowns, and Southwest style breakfast food, I promise this dish won't disappoint. Plus, you can't go wrong with a casserole that's just 6 SmartPoints per serving! It's great all on it's own, but feel free to serve it with some sour cream, salsa, and jalapeños if you'd like!

1. Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees. Spray bottom and sides of a 9x13 casserole dish with non-stick spray.
