💛 Why You’ll Love It

• 🧀 Cheesy, crispy goodness: It's nachos… for breakfast!

• 🥑 Endless options: Perfect for picky eaters—use whatever toppings you have on hand!

📝 Ingredients

• 2 cups tortilla chips

• 1 cup mozzarella cheese, grated (or your preferred cheese)

• 2 teaspoons olive oil or butter

• 2 large eggs

Topping Ideas:

• Guacamole

• Salsa

• Chopped cilantro

• Crumbled cooked bacon or breakfast sausage

• Cooked pinto, refried, or black beans

• Any cooked leftover vegetables

👩‍🍳 Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a baking sheet or toaster tray with parchment paper. Spread out the tortilla chips, sprinkle with cheese, and bake for 10 minutes, or until the cheese melts.

2. While the chips bake, heat olive oil or butter in a skillet over medium heat. Crack the eggs into the pan and cook for 2-3 minutes (flip halfway if desired). Scrambled eggs also work great here!

3. Assemble your nachos: Remove the chips from the oven, top with the eggs, and add your favorite toppings. Serve warm and enjoy!

📌 Notes

• For a Crowd: Scale up the recipe to feed a group! Use a half or full-sized sheet pan and add as many eggs and toppings as needed.

• Kid-Friendly Tip: Let the kids sprinkle the cheese and pick their toppings—it’s a great way to get them excited about breakfast!

Breakfast Nachos are the perfect blend of fun and flavor to kickstart your day. Gather the family, load up those chips, and enjoy a delicious morning fiesta! 🌞
