Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 °F.
- Add oil, onions, and peppers to a large skillet and sauté for 2-3 minutes over medium heat.
- Add ground sausage and beef. Cook for 6-8 minutes or until cooked through. Use a potato masher to crumble the meat. Add taco seasoning, ½ tsp. salt and ¼ tsp. pepper. Stir to combine.
- In a medium bowl combine salsa, corn, and black beans. Stir to combine.
- In a large bowl combine eggs, ¼ c. milk, ½ t. salt and ¼ t. pepper. Whisk to combine.
- Spray a 9 x 13 inch pan with non-stick cooking spray. Layer half of the meat mixture, 16 tortilla quarters, half of the salsa/corn mixture, and 1 cup of cheese. Repeat all layers except for the last cheese layer. Pour egg mixture over the layers and top with remaining cheese.
- Cover the baking dish with a piece of aluminum foil and bake for 45-55 minutes, or until middle no longer jiggles. Remove the foil during the last 10 minutes of cooking.
- Serve with cilantro, green onions, avocados and extra salsa.
Notes
- How to prep ahead of time: If you're prepping this you can stop before baking and refrigerate the casserole dish for up to 2 days. On the morning of serving, pull out the dish at least 30 minutes ahead of time so it can come to room temperature. Proceed with the baking directions as instructed the next morning.
- How to store: Keep leftover casserole in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 to 4 days.
- How to freeze: Place in a freezer safe container or freezer bag and store for up to 2-3 months.
- How to reheat: Warm up casserole in the microwave until heated through.
