Green Chili Sausage Breakfast Patties

Submitted by Brandie Swift

"We came up with these as a variation to use what we had to make a great breakfast! We make the first half without the green chilis for the kids then add them in for the balance of the batter."

 

• Ready In: 40mins
• Ingredients: 11
• Serves: 6

ingredients

• 1 lb ground sausage, cooked (we like the bacon sausage)
• 4 large potatoes, shredded or 4 cups frozen hash browns, cooked
• 1⁄2 cup onion, shredded
• 1 1⁄2 cups baking mix
• 2⁄3 cup milk
• 1 teaspoon butter
• 3 eggs
• 1⁄4 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or more)
• 4 large cooked green chilies, such as New Mexico Hatch
• cooking oil

directions

1. Sausage and potatoes should be cooked already.
2. Mix all the rest of the ingredients except cooking oil.
3. Fold in sausage and hashbrowns to mix.
4. Heat oil in a pan.
5. Drop mix into pan by large spoonfuls and flatten with the back of the spoon. Cook until browning around the edges and then use your spatula underneath and back of the spoon on the top to flip them over. Continue cooking until brown on second side.
6. Serve with a little syrup to sweeten them up or sour cream and hot sauce to go savory!
