    Sausage noodle Mexican breakfast casserole with cream of mushroom soup

    A hearty Dutch Oven Breakfast Casserole. Easy and cheesy. Everything you’d expect in a casserole dish like this, a one pot meal that’s great for a hearty breakfast to feed a crowd. 

    Dutch Oven Casserole with noodles, sausage, cheese and topped with salsa.


    Is there any noise in the kitchen more satisfying than the sound pasta makes when you’re stirring it together with saucy ingredients? Those ingredients for this Mexican Breakfast Casserole include egg noodles, sausage, cheese, cream of mushroom soup, milk, Hatch chile peppers, tomato, avocado….all baked into a creamy treat.

    Snow on roofs at Treana

    Rude awakening. We had our first Summer snow storm last Thursday. Wednesday night we went to bed with temps in the 70’s and woke up Thursday morning with low hanging thick clouds that decided to drop some icy snow to stick on our green grass, trees and rooftops. 

    Oh, it didn’t amount to much according to Colorado standards, but it was a shock to our flip-flopped feet. Absolutely perfect excuse to drag out the pasta, the cheese and the casserole dish. Side note, we’ve been back in the 80’s ever since this little front moved on through.

    This is a breakfast casserole with cream of mushroom soup

    This is a great one-dish Dutch oven breakfast meal.

    I cooked the egg noodles on the stovetop according to package instructions in my 3.5 qt. Le Creuset French Oven.

    While they cooked I browned some breakfast sausage with chopped onion and bell pepper. I sliced up some tomatoes and roasted Hatch chile peppers and dug around in my newly organized pantry and found a “cream of” soup. Which happened to be cream of mushroom soup. Perfect!

    Here’s how it went together:

    Dutch oven breakfast casserole with egg noodles, cream of mushroom soup, sausage and red bell peppers

    After the noodles were drained and back in the Dutch oven, I simply topped them with everything that was to go in the casserole.

    Even two whole eggs, which I should have lightly beaten, but was feeling frivolous.

    Mexican sausage casserole

    After a good stir to make sure all ingredients mixed together evenly, I popped the pan into a 350 degree oven for about thirty minutes until everything was nice and bubbly. 

    This is everything you expect in a breakfast casserole of this type.

    Creamy and cheesy in texture, spicy with Fall flavors of Hatch green chile and chile powder, savory with sausage and sweet with tomatoes and orange bell pepper. Topped with chopped avocado and homemade salsa, we definitely had seconds…and thirds.

      Wow! This recipe looks amazing! Printing it out as I type. I just finished cleaning, bagging and freezing my roasted green chiles. Two bushel for $30 off I-70 and Sheridan. I’m now debating whether the 4 bushel will get me through our winter consumption….especially after seeing your recipe! Thanks for sharing!!

      This looks wonderful. We must have been channeling some sort of spicy breakfast spirit because I did a spicy breakfast idea this week!

      We’re probably a week or so away from our first snow! Yikes! Where did the summer go???

      It has been pretty chilly here also with morning temps in the upper 30s to low 40s. Not good for tomato ripening, that’s for sure! Your breakfast casserole sounds so warm and delicious – perfect for an autumn day!

      Great brunch recipe. Snow seriously. I haven’t talked to my SiL (live outside Boulder) so I had now idea about the snow. We had a great fall day yesterday, but back to summer temps today, I believe.
