Vegan MoFo Day 5: Mexicasserole.

veganmofo_2

I know this casserole smacks of Semi-Homemade and is as much authentically Mexican as I am, but hey. It tastes really good!

First, I cut some flour tortillas into thick strips, and place them in a casserole dish in a single layer. A bunch of fresh spinach goes on top of that, then some globs of Nacho Mom's Queso or other cheezy-type of sauce.

Then spoon a layer of whatever kind of filling you want. In this case, I did black beans and diced tomatoes simmered with some quinoa, chili powder, and hot sauce. Top with more strips of tortilla.

Add more cheezy sauce, more bean filling, then top with Cheddar Daiya. Cover with foil and bake on 450F for about 20 minutes.

Top with avocado or soy sour cream, and enjoy!
