This is my go-to recipe for a brunch that’s both comforting and bursting with flavor. It takes the classic Mexican dish and turns it into a simple, single-pan casserole. Perfect for feeding a crowd without all the fuss.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 12 small corn tortillas
  • 1 (15-ounce) jar salsa verde
  • 2 cups shredded Mexican blend cheese
  • 1 (15-ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained
  • 6 large eggs
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Optional Toppings:

  • Pico de gallo
  • Diced or sliced avocado
  • Crumbled cotija cheese (or feta)

Instructions

  1. Preheat & Prep: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Spread ¼ cup of salsa verde on the bottom of a 9×13 inch baking dish.
  2. Layer It Up: Arrange 6 tortillas to cover the bottom of the dish. Pour half of the remaining salsa over the tortillas, then sprinkle with half of the black beans and 1 cup of cheese.
  3. Repeat: Layer the remaining 6 tortillas on top, then add the rest of the salsa, beans, and 1 cup of cheese.
  4. First Bake: Bake for 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbling.
  5. Add the Eggs: Remove the dish from the oven. Use the back of a spoon to create 6 wells in the cheese layer. Crack one egg into each well and season with salt and pepper.
  6. Final Bake: Return the casserole to the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the egg whites are set and the yolks are still a little runny.
  7. Garnish & Serve: Top with fresh pico de gallo, avocado, and cotija cheese. Serve hot!

Notes

Serving: This casserole is a full meal on its own. For a complete brunch spread, I recommend a simple green salad on the side.

Tips & Tricks: You can easily assemble the entire casserole (without the eggs) the night before. Cover it tightly and store in the fridge. In the morning, just pop it in the oven and add the eggs after the initial 10-minute bake.

Storage: Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat individual portions in the oven at 350°F (175°C) to prevent the eggs from getting rubbery.
