Instructions

Recipe Notes
Do Ahead or Delegate: Brown the ground beef or turkey (if using it), cut the tortillas.
Scramble Flavor Booster: Mix in 1/2 tsp. chili powder or cumin, use a spicy salsa and serve the casserole with hot pepper sauce, such as Tabasco.
Tip: You can use kitchen shears to cut tortillas. It's efficient and kind of fun too!
