Eggs Ortega

This is a wonderfully quick-to-whip-up egg bake that you can either have for supper or mix the night before, refrigerate, and place in the oven in the morning for a great breakfast!

I do not particularly like egg bakes, like, at all...ahem...but this one is fantastic! I even had seconds!! :)

10 eggs
1/2 c. flour
1 t. baking powder
1/2 t. salt
1 pt (2 c.) cottage cheese (no more)
1 lb shredded Monterey Jack cheese (I used about 1/2-3/4 lb & it was just fine)
1/2 c. melted butter
2 small cans of diced, green chilies (mild or hot..you decide)

Beat eggs well. Mix dry ingredients together. Fold eggs into dry ingredients (will be lumpy). Mix together cheeses and butter. Add this mixture to batch, blend with beaters until well blended and almost smooth. Add chilies. Pour into slightly greased 9x13 pan. Bake at 350 for 35-40 mins. Let stand and cool a few minutes before cutting. Serve with salsa if desired.
