Recipe information

  • Yield

    serves 4, 1 cup per serving

Ingredients

Cooking spray
2 ounces turkey breakfast sausage (2 links), casings discarded
1 Anaheim pepper, seeded and diced
6 6-inch corn tortillas, diced
1 15-ounce can no-salt-added black beans, rinsed and drained
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
2 cups fat-free milk
1 1/2 cups egg substitute
2 tablespoons sliced black olives, drained

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Preheat the oven to 350°F. Lightly spray a 9-inch square baking pan with cooking spray. Set aside.

    Step 2

    In a small nonstick skillet, cook the sausage over medium-high heat for 3 minutes, stirring to break up the pieces. Stir in the pepper. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes, or until the pepper is tender and the sausage is no longer pink. Spoon into the baking pan.

    Step 3

    Top, in order, with the tortillas, beans, and tomatoes.

    Step 4

    In a medium bowl, whisk together the milk and egg substitute. Pour over the casserole.

    Step 5

    Bake for 45 minutes, or until the center is set (doesn’t jiggle when the casserole is gently shaken). Sprinkle with the olives.

  2. Cook’s Tip

    Step 6

    To make the casserole ahead of time, assemble as directed, then cover and refrigerate, unbaked, for up to 12 hours. Remove from the refrigerator 15 minutes before baking.
