Today I’m bringing back one of my favorite meals on this earth: ENCHILADA CASSEROLE. My mom used to make it all the time for church gatherings and parties when she didn’t want to roll up tortillas for enchiladas. It’s a crowd-pleaser or a homemade weeknight dinner. AND SO EASY TOO!
This flavorful, absolutely delicious vegetarian enchilada casserole packs protein from black beans, a rainbow of roasted veggies, a kick of heat from chipotle, and layers of melty cheese. This wonderful dish 100% belongs on your Meatless Monday menu. It’s freezer-friendly and would make such a great meal for new mamas or to keep in the freezer for quick meals down the road!
