Healthy Breakfast Nachos

Want to get three veggies inside you before you’ve even left the house? May I present to you Breakfast Nachos  –  one of the easiest, fastest and tastiest ways to start your day off in a healthy way.


Healthy breakfasts can get tiresome – especially if you’re trying to cram vegetables in there – but breakfast nachos are one dish that you won’t get fed up of.


You can easily mix up your veggies and change the herbs and spices you use to create almost a different breakfast each time. These are super easy and fast to prepare, too, which I absolutely love. And just look at those colours - who wouldn't want to wake up to that?


I usually go all in for thick, fluffy pancakes or heavenly chocolate donuts for breakfast, but every now and then I do crave something healthy. When those cravings hit, this is one of the first dishes I think of.


This is a super-short post today. If you visit my blog often, you may have noticed that the layout has changed completely. It's not finished yet, but I’m hoping to have most of the images and stuff sorted by today. Let me know what you think of the new design! 

Breakfast Nachos
Ingredients
2 tortillas
1/4 cup sweet corn
1/4 cup diced onion
2 slices ham, chopped
1 large tomato, diced
1 tablespoon butter
3 eggs
Splash of milk
Salt & pepper
1/4 cup grated cheese

Recipe
1. Preheat the oven to 350°F/180°C and chop the tortillas up into small triangular nacho shapes. Arrange on a baking tray and bake for about 10 minutes or until brown and crispy. (Don’t turn the oven off when you’re done! Instead, increase the heat to 400°F/200°C)

2. Melt the butter in a frying pan over a medium heat and sautee the corn and onion for 5 minutes.
Add the tomato and ham and cook for a further 5 minutes until soft.

3. Lightly whisk the eggs, milk and seasonings and pour into the frying pan. Stir the eggs (just like you would if you were making scrambled eggs) and cook until set.

4. To assemble, layer half the baked tortilla chips in the bottom of a ceramic bowl, add half scrambled egg and veggie mix on top, layer the rest of the tortilla chips and finally the rest of the eggs. Sprinkle on some grated cheese and bake in the oven for 5-10 minutes or until the cheese is golden and bubbling.

Enjoy a healthy breakfast that actually tastes good!

  3. I made these delicious nachos for Sunday brunch after church today, and they were a big hit! I substituted sausage for the ham, and canned tomato for the fresh, because that's what I had on hand. Also, I cooked the nachos in a single layer on a flat pan rather than in a ceramic bowl. Paired with a rhubarb upside-down cake, the nachos were heartily enjoyed. Thank you so much.

  5. How creative! I just saw this on Must Try Monday. I want to try this. I love breakfast burritos, but I have never heard of breakfast nachos. And I could definitely use a boost on the healthy stuff in the morning.
