These breakfast nachos are loaded with hash browns, sausage, two kinds of cheese, jalapeños, and topped with fried eggs. 

These nachos are wonderful for a weekend breakfast, and if you need it, the perfect hangover cure.

I love Mexican-style breakfasts on the weekend. Some of my favorite include chilaquiles, huevos rancheros, this Mexican breakfast casserole, and my all time favorite, breakfast burritos.

How to Make These Breakfast Nachos

First, you cook the breakfast sausage, breaking it up into pieces with a spatula while cooking. 

Next, you cook frozen hash browns until they are crispy, following the package instructions. You won't believe how delicious hash browns are in these nachos. 

Finally, you layer the tortillas, potatoes, sausage, cheese, and sliced jalapeños, and bake them in a 450 degree F oven for 5 minutes, until the cheese is bubbly. 

While the nachos are baking, fry the eggs for topping the nachos. 

For these breakfast nachos, instead of making my own tortilla chips, I used yellow corn tostadas caseras, which come packaged in the tortilla section of your grocery store. They are stacked pre-fried corn tortillas. This way, I could build separate nacho breakfasts for each person.

Each section of the baking sheet starts with a round tostada shell. I broke up the tostada shells for the second layer of chips.

If you can't find the tostadas, you can use your favorite sturdy tortilla chips. Your nachos will be just as delicious.

Breakfast Nachos Recipe Variations:

The sky is the limit with this recipe. You can substitute cooked bacon or chorizo for the sausage. You can also add some refried beans, black beans, or ranchero style beans into the layers. 

You could substitute fully cooked Tater Tots for the hash browns, and if the jalapeños aren't your jam, you can leave them out. If pepper Jack cheese is too spicy for you, just use Monterey Jack in its place.

And yes, crispy potatoes on top of tortillas are amazing. 

I topped these nachos with salsa and cilantro. You can also add sour cream, crema, and/or diced avocado.

Make ahead tips for these breakfast nachos:

You can prepare and refrigerate the sausage in advance. In addition, you can also fry and refrigerate the eggs in advance. Just microwave them for about 30 seconds before topping the nachos.
