For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a can of drained and rinsed black beans to the hash brown mixture. Spice it up by using pepper jack cheese instead of Mexican blend cheese. Make ahead: Assemble the casserole the night before and store it in the refrigerator. Add about 15 minutes to the baking time. Serve with your favorite toppings like avocado slices, sour cream, salsa, chopped cilantro, or a drizzle of hot sauce.
