Ingredients

8 large eggs

1 cup whole milk

1 teaspoon salt

½ teaspoon black pepper

2 cups shredded cheddar cheese

1 cup diced green chilies

1 tablespoon butter


Directions

1.

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease an 8x8-inch baking dish with butter to prevent sticking.

In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined and slightly frothy.

3.

Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese and diced green chilies, making sure the ingredients are evenly distributed throughout.

4.

Pour the egg mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly using a spatula or the back of a spoon.

5.

Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the casserole is set in the center.

6.

Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before slicing into squares and serving warm.
