Tortillas+ black beans+ salsa+ cheese.
These ingredients can be a breather on weeknights! You can try different permutations and combinations with these ingredients and all of them will turn out yummy!
One such outcome is Tortilla casserole. It is a super easy, fast and of course a delish dish. There is no specific ingredient list for this dish, pretty much anything you have on hand. Stir them up on heat, layer it on tortilla and bake it. All the ingredients come together as a warm, hearty and satisfying meal. The bite of the beans, tomatoey flavor of salsa, and corn tortilla, all smothered with cheese is a great tasting combination! And a dollop of sour cream will totally intensify this tasty experience.
These are the ingredients I often use for this dish.
