Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9-inch pie plate thoroughly.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add sausage; cook, crumbling as you stir, until evenly browned and no longer pink, approximately 10 minutes. Drain any excess grease completely.
Arrange 4 tortillas in the greased pie plate, overlapping them and extending ½-inch beyond the rim; place the remaining tortilla in the center. Layer the cooked sausage, Monterey Jack cheese, Cheddar cheese, and green chiles evenly over the tortillas. In a bowl, beat together the eggs, heavy cream, ricotta cheese, and chili powder; slowly pour this mixture into the pie plate.
Bake in the preheated oven until the center is firm and puffed up, about 45 minutes. Garnish with fresh cilantro and cut into wedges to serve.
