Cooking:

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F.

    Prepare Mexican-Style Beef Sausage; add poblanos. Heat large cast-iron skillet over medium heat until hot; cook sausage mixture 8 to 10 minutes, breaking beef into 1/2-inch crumbles and stirring occasionally. Remove sausage mixture to medium bowl; wipe out skillet.

  2. Set aside 2 tablespoons cilantro for garnish. Combine salsa verde and remaining cilantro in small bowl; mix to combine. Set aside. Combine tomatoes and salsa in small bowl; mix to combine. Set aside. 

  3. In the same cast-iron skillet or 2-quart baking dish, layer 1/2 of chips, beans and sausage mixture. Top with 1/2 of salsa verde mixture. Repeat with remaining chips, beans and sausage mixture. Top with remaining salsa verde mixture and  salsa/tomato mixture; sprinkle with cheese. Bake in 400°F oven 18 to 20 minutes or until cheese is melted and begins to bubble and brown.

  4. Drizzle with crema; top with green onions, cilantro, avocado and eggs, as desired.
