Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and grease a 9x13 inch casserole dish with cooking spray or oil.
  2. Lay down 8 corn tortillas evenly across the bottom of the prepared casserole dish and spread 1 cup of medium chunky red salsa over the tortillas.
  3. Sprinkle half of the drained and rinsed black beans and a third of the Mexican cheese blend on top, creating a flavorful foundation.
  4. Repeat the layering process by adding another set of 8 tortillas, followed by another cup of salsa, the remaining black beans, and another third of the cheese.
  5. Place the remaining tortillas on top, pour the last cup of salsa evenly, and sprinkle the remaining cheese blend.
  6. Create shallow wells in the top layer for the eggs and crack each egg into a well, ensuring they are evenly spaced.
  7. Bake for 25-30 minutes, until egg whites are set and cheese is bubbly and golden.
  8. Let it cool for about 2 minutes after baking, garnish with cilantro, green onions, and avocado, then serve.
