No need for this easy Tortilla Breakfast Pie to only be served as breakfast ! Serve at dinner time, with either a vegetable side or a crunchy salad. I love this recipe, as the crust is already done --- in the shape of Tortillas which are layered over and around the inside of the pie dish. Half the work of a traditional pie already done. This is a huge pie and is enough for at least 6 servings, but served together with a side or a salad, it can be stretched easily to 8 - 10 portions. Depending on your family's ages and usual portions of course.

How To Make easy tortilla breakfast pie

1
Pre-heat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease a large pie dish.

2
Heat the Olive Oil and cook the Ground Beef until done - season to taste with Salt and Pepper.
3
Layer the Tortillas in the pie dish, letting the edges stick over the pie dish.
4
Scoop half of the cooked Beef into the Tortilla "crust" followed by half the Cheddar - repeat.
5
Beat together the Eggs, Fresh Cream. Chili Flakes and Salt - stir in the Onion and Parsley.
6
Pour the mixture over the meat and cheese - bake 40 - 45 minutes or until the center of the pie has set.
7
If the Tortilla edges browns too quickly, loosely cover - only the edges - with pieces of aluminum foil.
8
Remove pie from the oven and leave to settle for 5 minutes before slicing.
