- Cilantro: Freshly chopped for a zesty garnish.Salsa and sour cream: Serve on the side for guests to add a fresh or creamy dimension to each bite.
Notes
- Time Saving Tip: Prep casserole the night before so all you need to do is pop it in the oven.
- Control the Spiciness: Remove the seeds and membrane or pith from your jalapeños for milder flavor. For more heat, leave some or all of the seeds and membrane intact.
- Creamier Eggs: Whisk your eggs thoroughly to achieve a more light and fluffy texture.
- Don't Over Bake: Keep an eye on your casserole as it bakes as oven temperatures vary.
