For a spicier kick, use hot green enchilada sauce or add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the egg mixture.
Feel free to experiment with different cheeses such as pepper jack or a Mexican blend.
To prevent the casserole from browning too quickly, tent it with foil during the last 10 minutes of baking.
This casserole can be assembled ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours before baking. Add an extra 10 minutes to the baking time if baking from cold.

Jan 20, 2025The casserole was a bit bland for my taste. Next time, I'll definitely add some extra spices like cumin and chili powder.

Nov 9, 2022I've made this recipe several times, and it's always a hit. I sometimes add a layer of cooked ground beef for extra protein.
