Jimmy Dean Taco Bake Recipes

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Cook sausage and onion in large skillet over MEDIUM-HIGH heat 8-10 minutes or until sausage is thoroughly cooked, stirring frequently; drain. Return sausage mixture to skillet.
• 2. Add tomatoes, beans, water and seasoning mix; stir. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to MEDIUM-LOW; simmer 10 minutes or until slightly thickened, stirring occasionally.
• 3. Place broken tortilla chips in lightly greased 13x9-inch baking dish; cover with layers of 1 cup cheese, sausage mixture and remaining cheese.
• 4. Bake 30 minutes. Cut into 8 squares. Serve topped with sour cream and cilantro, if desired.

Steps:

• Cook the breakfast sausage until it is done and crumbly.
• Drain off the excess fat (If you used chorizo, drain off LOTS of excess fat).
• In a 9x13-inch rectangular baking pan, start by layering the tater tots on the bottom.
• Then sprinkle the cooked sausage crumbles.
• Then place dollops of the chilies and tomatoes evenly around the pan (I don't drain them, but you can if you want a milder flavor).
• Evenly distribute the cubes of Velveeta.
• Place your 9x13-inch pan into a slightly larger jelly roll pan (has sides) to catch any spills or overflow.
• Now beat the eggs, salt, and pepper.
• Pour the eggs over the tater tots, sausage, and cheese.
• Cover and bake for 30 minutes at 350°F
• The eggs should be soft-set in the middle.
• At this point you can refrigerate the dish.
• Finish by baking uncovered for 15-20 minutes at 350°F.
• Serve with warm corn tortillas, salsa, and sour cream.
• Allow everyone to make their own breakfast tacos, or simply dish and eat.
