Green Chile Pork & Eggs

Not all egg dishes have to be for breakfast. Eggs are an amazing source of protein and can really stretch a meal (and budget) when the freezer is running low on meat options. This particular recipes combines some ground pork with the eggs to make a delicious bite with a little bit of heat from the green chilies. Whether you make this for breakfast or dinner, your going to love this quick easy meal of Green Chile Pork & Eggs.

I have included my own recipe for taco seasoning at the bottom of the full recipe. I make this in larger quantities and store it in a mason jar next to my other spices. We use it often. It is great to add more flavor to a simple cheese quesadilla or flavor your eggs or make quick marinades for chicken or beef. Having it on hand helps to keep me from reaching for a packet in a pinch. That said, use the packet if you are in a pinch. I do try to stick to the low or less sodium versions as thats the biggest issue with the pre-made mixes.

Substitutes and Variations:

I have used pork in this, but ground beef or ground turkey would be just fine, too. If you want to add more heat (green chilies are relatively mild), you can substitute for a can of diced jalapeños or just use your favorite hot sauce.
