Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Spray a 9 x 13 inch baking pan with cooking spray; set aside.
Cut tortillas into 1 inch wide strips.
In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, flour, evaporated milk, hot sauce, paprika and onion powder until well combined; set aside.
In a large skillet, brown ground beef with onions over medium heat, cooking until onions are soft and meat is browned, about 5-7 minutes. Discard any excess grease.
Add refried beans to the ground beef; mix meat and refried beans together until fully incorporated.
Place half of the tortilla strips into the bottom of the prepared baking pan, covering the bottom of the pan. Layer half of the green chilies over the strips evenly. Layer half of the cheese on the chilies; add another layer of tortilla strips; add another layer of green chilies.
Pour egg mixture topping over the top. Spread meat and beans over the egg mixture. Sprinkle the remaining cheese over the top.
Bake for 45 minutes.
