Directions

  • 1 Heat oven to 375°F. Spray 2 (10-oz) custard cups or soufflé dishes with cooking spray. If necessary, heat bacon in microwave on High 15 seconds or until warm and pliable. Line inner side of each custard cup (not bottom) with 2 bacon slices, overlapping as necessary.
  • 2 Gently place frozen biscuit in each cup to fit inside bacon collar. Spoon 1 heaping tablespoon green chiles onto each biscuit; place remaining green chiles in small bowl and set aside. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons cheese over chiles on each biscuit. Carefully crack 1 egg over cheese on each. Sprinkle each with 2 tablespoons remaining cheese to cover; sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  • 3 Place custard cups on cookie sheet; bake 25 to 35 minutes or until biscuits are baked and egg whites are set. Cool in cups 5 minutes. Meanwhile, add tomato, cilantro, onion and lime juice to green chiles in bowl; mix well. Season to taste with salt.
  • 4 Carefully remove bacon-wrapped biscuits from custard cups; place on individual plates. Spoon green chile salsa over top and around sides. Serve with cantaloupe.

@carrieval...and we should take medical advice from someone who can't spell biscuits or saturated, right?. Argh is right. Thank you to those who actually tried the recipe and gave an honest review as to how it tastes. I, for one, don't want to be told what is appropriate and inappropriate food by pious reviewers riding about on their high horses.

Recipe is not as spicy and tasty as I would have thought. Next time, I will use refrigerator biscuits instead of the frozen ones. I also think it would be better if the egg is beaten instead of left whole.

THIS IS ONE SUPER RECIPIE, WE MAKE A POINT OF MAKING IT JUST ABOUT EVERY SUNDAY AND SOMETIME FOR SUPPER. IT FILLS YOU UP AND IS JUST SO GOOD, SIMPLE AND QUICK!. WE USE REGULAR BACON INSTEAD OF THE PRECOOKED, WORK JUST AS GOOD AND IS LESS EXPENSIVE FOR THOSE ON A BUDGET, I PERSONALLY JUST PREFER REGULAR BACON. WE ALSO SUB GREEN CHILIE ENCHALADA SAUCE FOR THE SALSA. JUST A PERSONAL PREFERENCE. THIS IS SO GOOD, JUST TRY IT!

Very easy and relatively quick. Easy breakfast idea for a group: fix several ahead and keep warm the same as pancakes or a breakfast casserole.
