Mexican Taco Egg Bake

I've never been more excited for breakfast!

This Mexican Taco Egg Bake is bursting with flavor and will become your new favorite.

This post is sponsored by the Iowa Egg Council.

May is National Egg Month! Did you know that?

Eggs are celebrated pretty much every day in our house {we eat a ton of them}, but it is fun to dedicate a WHOLE month to this protein-packed, no-carb, 70 calorie gem.

The Iowa Egg Council and I go waaaaaaaay back and I love featuring recipes on behalf of them. In case you missed some of my others, here you go:

Instant Pot Hash Brown Egg Bake

Loaded Healthy Freezer-Friendly Breakfast Burritos

Egg and Avocado Turkey Bacon Cups

....and my personal favorite, the delicious Egg-in-the-Hole Cast Iron Skillet Burgers.

Eggs can be made and taken in so many different directions....you can leave them whole {as in this recipe}, you can mix them together with any ingredient to make them both sweet or savory and they are just plain essential for any baked good.

We all LOVE our baked goods.

And guess what? Iowa just isn't know for their pork industry, Ashton Kutcher and our early presidental caucuses.

We are know for our EGGS. We are the #1 egg producing state in the nation, producing over 15 billon eggs a year, plus they contribute big time to our local economy.

For this dish, I wanted to put everything in here that I would my breakfast taco. Please tell me you also enjoy breakfast tacos?

I like mine with chorizo or bacon, crispy potatoes, peppers and crumbly Mexican cotija cheese. And eggs of course. But, when you have a family of 5 and want to go the easy route, you simply put all those flavors in a baking dish and call it good!

You can find chorizo and cotija cheese in your Mexican refrigerated aisle of your grocery store. Very easy to find!

Our house smelled incredible while this was baking. I made it late in the morning and my stomach was RUMBLING as I had waited to have breakfast.

It was pure torture.

I've been trying to lower my carb intake {yes, I know there are potatoes in this dish, and I'm fine with that, because I enjoy living}....but all in all this is a breakfast I can get down with. Protein packed eggs fill me up and keep me going when life gets hectic.

Plus just one large egg has 13 essential vitamins and minerals and only 70 calories. I mean, breakfast could not get any better!

Serve this family style or bake up on Sunday eating a serving or two, then put back in the fridge to re-heat later in the week.

Trust me, the leftovers are just as great.
