I love the way the tortilla strips puff up when this is baked. It is a terrific no-fuss recipe that everyone in my family enjoys, even the meat lovers. —Barbara Burge, Los Gatos, California

Ingredients

  • 1 cup salsa
  • 1 cup canned black beans, rinsed and drained
  • 10 corn tortillas (6 inches), cut into 1-inch strips
  • 1 cup shredded Mexican cheese blend
  • 2 large eggs

  • 1 cup 2% milk
  • 1 cup reduced-fat sour cream
  • 2 green onions, thinly sliced
