For the Chipotle Sauce

Equipment

  • 9X13 casserole dish
  • Baking sheet
  • food processor
  • Large bowl
  • Oven

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius). Grease a 9x13 inch casserole dish.
  2. Line a baking sheet with foil. Lay the bacon strips on top of the foil. Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator until ready to bake.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together the beaten eggs, diced bell peppers, sliced green onion, chopped cilantro, 1/2 cup of the shredded cheese blend, and black pepper until combined.
  4. Pour the egg mixture into the prepared casserole dish. Place both the casserole dish with the egg mixture and the baking sheet with the bacon into the preheated oven.
  5. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the bacon is cooked to your desired crispiness. During the last 3-4 minutes of baking, place the English muffins in the oven to toast.
  6. While the bacon and eggs are baking, prepare the chipotle sauce. Add the chipotle pepper in adobo, chipotle in adobo sauce, garlic, yogurt, and cilantro to a food processor. Pulse until completely combined. Season with salt to taste and set aside.
  7. Remove the cooked bacon from the oven and place it on a surface lined with paper towels. Cover with another paper towel and set aside.
  8. Using a knife or a cookie cutter, cut circles out of the set egg scramble casserole. The circles should be about the same size as your English muffins.
  9. Assemble the sandwiches. Place one egg scramble circle on the bottom half of a toasted English muffin. Add a sprinkle of the remaining shredded cheese, then spread a generous dollop of the chipotle sauce on top. Add a couple of bacon strips and garnish with fresh cilantro. Top with the other half of the English muffin and serve immediately.

Notes

For a spicier sauce, you can add more of the chipotle pepper or adobo sauce. Adjust to your preference.
