Ingredients


1 tsp Butter, grass fed, unsalted
1 can (15oz) Black beans, canned (rinsed and drained)
1 medium pepper(s) Red bell pepper (chopped)
1/2 cup White onion (finely chopped)
4 cup shredded Frozen hashed brown potato, plain

3 tbsp Cilantro (coriander)
8 large Egg
1 can (12oz) Evaporated Milk, Fat Free

1/4 tsp Cayenne pepper

Instructions


  1. Grease the inside of your slow cooker insert with butter.
  2. Add the black beans, bell pepper, onion, hash brown potatoes, corn, cheese, and cilantro in a large bowl. Stir to combine, then dump in the slow cooker.
  3. In the same bowl beat together the eggs, milk, salt-free seasoning, and cayenne pepper. Pour the mixture over the black bean and hash brown potato mixture. 
  4. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
  5. When you're ready to cook the casserole, transfer the slow cooker insert to the slow cooker base.
  6. Cover and cook on LOW for 3 to 5 hours, or until eggs are set and the edges are browned.
  7. Uncover, being careful not to let the condensation in the lid drip back into the slow cooker. Turn off the slow cooker and let the casserole sit, uncovered, for 15 minutes before serving. Cut into wedges.
