- Prepare all the toppings before the casserole is ready so everyone can enjoy it nice and hot.
- Rinse the black beans before adding them to the dish for a better flavor.
- Cover the casserole with foil during baking to keep it from drying out.
- Drain the meat after cooking!
- You can make the meat mixture ahead and then assemble and bake the dayyou are going to eat it but don’t add the Fritos in advance or they will becomesoggy.
- This casserole is best the day it’s prepared but it can be stored in an airtightcontainer for up to 2 days and reheated in the oven to bring back thecrispness of the Fritos.
