For the Sandwiches
For the Chipotle Sauce

Equipment

  • 9X13 casserole dish
  • Baking sheet
  • Food processor
  • Large bowl

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease a 9X13 inch casserole dish.
  2. Line a baking sheet with foil. Lay bacon strips on top and place 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, ½ 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 and the bacon sheet in the oven.
  5. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the eggs are set and the bacon is cooked to your desired crispiness. Place the English muffins in the oven for the last 3-4 minutes to toast.
  6. While the bacon and eggs are cooking, prepare the chipotle sauce. Add the chipotle pepper in adobo, chipotle 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 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 egg scramble casserole that are about the same size as the English muffins.
  9. Assemble the sandwiches: Place one egg scramble circle on one half of a toasted English muffin. Add a sprinkle of the remaining cheese, then spread a large dollop of 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 chipotle pepper or adobo sauce. Adjust the amount of seeds removed from the chipotle pepper to control the heat level.
