  1. Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F, Gas Mark 4). Grease a small baking dish with a teaspoon of olive oil.
  2. Finely chop the onion and red bell pepper. Place them in a small bowl along with the sweet corn and black beans.
  3. In a separate large bowl, whisk the eggs thoroughly, ensuring the yolks and whites are fully combined. Stir in the cottage cheese, mixing until smooth.
  4. Add the chopped vegetables and black beans into the egg mixture, along with the Mexican seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Mix until all ingredients are evenly distributed.
  5. Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle the grated cheddar cheese evenly over the top.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven for 50 minutes or until the top is golden and the centre is set, with a slight wobble.
  7. Allow the casserole to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm for any meal of the day.
