“Casseroles are so convenient. They feed several (or 1-2 people a few times), they generally use easy-to-find ingredients, and chances are they are covered with cheese to give you those comfort food vibes. This Gluten-Free Tex-Mex Casserole checks all those boxes and more – you’re going to love this one!” – Simply Gluten Free Magazine

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 9×12 baking dish with cooking spray.
- Place the beef in a nonstick skillet, season with salt, cumin, chili powder and pepper. Cook over medium-high heat until browned. Drain off any fat.
- Add the salsa, beans, corn and half the olives. Stir and continue to cook for 2 minutes or until everything is heated through.
- In a separate bowl, mix the cottage cheese and sour cream and set aside.
- Place the chips in a large food storage bag and crush.
- Put half the beef mixture in an even layer in the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Top with half the cottage cheese and sour cream mixture, then 2 cups of grated cheese, then half of the crushed chips. Repeat the layers. Cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes. Leave the oven on.
- Remove the foil, sprinkle the remaining 2 cups of cheese over the top, scatter the rest of the olives, the tomatoes and the jalapeño slices over the top.
- Cook for another 5-10 minutes or until the cheese on top is fully melted. Scatter the green onions on top and serve.
