I woke up this morning craving chips and salsa! Mexican food, yes, please!  Although it was too early for a margarita or a Corona, my tastebuds went into overdrive and I started digging through my pantry.

For those of us north of Tijuana, our version of Mexican food has been slightly altered.

In this recipe, you can opt to use another vegetable, besides the zucchini. Perhaps sweet potatoes or finely diced cauliflower.

ENJOY!

NOTE: This can be made up to a day ahead and stored in the refrigerator before baking.

Ingredients

  • 2 Tbl. olive oil
  • 2 cups onion finely chopped
  • 2 cups zucchini, diced into 1/2" pieces
  • 1 tsp. paprika
  • 1 tsp. salt

  • 1 tsp. Oregano
  • 1/2 tsp. chili powder more or less to taste
  • 12 oz. soyrizzo, cooked
  • 1 can black beans rinsed and drained
  • 15 oz Enchilada or Mexican sauce
  • 3 medium potatoes thinly sliced into round pieces
  • 1 1/2 cups vegan cheese
  • 12 regular corn tortillas

  4. Grease a 9 x 13" baking dish and preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  5. Pour 1/3 of the sauce into the bottom of the baking dish and top with 6 corn tortillas, overlapping, to cover the entire bottom of the baking dish.
  6. Top with 1/2 of the veggie-soyrizo mixture and then top with the sliced potato rounds.
  7. Top potatoes with the remaining half of the veggie-soyrizo mixture along with 3 Tbl. of the enchilada sauce and 3/4 cup of vegan cheese.
  8. Top with remaining corn tortillas and 3/4 cup of vegan cheese.
