Author's Notes

This dish is very mildly spiced, but if you rather not have any zip, substitute Colby Jack Cheese for the Pepper Jack. You may use pre-shredded cheese as a time saver, but freshly grated melts smoother.
Cooking InstructionsHide images
step 1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C).
step 2
Grease a 9x13 baking dish with Nonstick Cooking Spray (as needed). Spread Tortilla Chips (2 cups) on the bottom of the dish and set aside.
step 3
In a large bowl, whisk together the Farmhouse Eggs® Large Brown Eggs (10), Cottage Cheese (2 cups), Mild Diced Green Chiles (2 cans), Salt (1/2 tsp), and Ground Black Pepper (1/8 tsp). Stir in 2 cups of Pepper Jack Cheese (1 block). Refrigerate the remaining cup for later use.
step 4
Bake the casserole for 30-35 minutes or until the edges are firm, but the middle is slightly undercooked.
step 5
Remove from the oven and top with the remaining Tortilla Chips (2 cups) and sprinkle 1 cup reserved cheese on top.
step 6
Return to the oven to bake for 10-15 minutes more until the eggs are set, or until a knife inserted in the middle comes out without liquid.
step 7
Let it stand for 5 minutes before slicing and serving with Sour Cream (to taste), Fresh Cilantro (to taste), and Salsa (to taste).
