Breakfast Enchiladas

Who doesn’t love enchiladas and breakfast? I know that I love enchiladas more than I should and this recipe just brings me so much joy every time I make it. It’s full of all the lovely carbs we all know and love! You can create this meal with just about anything you have in your fridge that’s left over. I’m all about revamping your leftovers and this is such a great way to do that! This would make a great brunch option too!
