A fast and easy recipe for Enchilada Casserole, with black beans, corn, sweet potatoes and a quick 5 Minute Enchilada Sauce. Comforting and healthy! Keep it vegetarian or add cooked chicken or ground turkey!

Vegetarian Enchilada Casserole 

enchilada sauce (or make my 5-minute enchilada sauce)

corn

cheese

green chilies, (optional)

can diced tomatoes (or tomato puree or tomato sauce)

water

olive oil

apple cider vinegar

cumin

onion powder

chili powder

chipotle powder

½ teaspoon kosher salt

garlic

oregano– optional (dry

onion,

garlic, rough chopped (see notes)

bag frozen corn (regular

can black beans, drained(

salt

Make the Quick Enchilada Sauce

Place all ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth, set aside.

Make the filling

Saute onion, garlic and sweet potatoes in the olive oil over medium heat, until tender, about 10-12 minutes, covering ½ way through, allowing potatoes to steam and get tender. Add corn and black beans, cumin, chili powder and salt and saute until warmed through.

Assemble

In a greased 9 x13 inch baking dish, spread out ½ cup of enchilada sauce, to lightly coat the bottom. Spread out 4 tortillas on top of the sauce.  Spread out ½ of the filling over the tortillas. Scatter half of the canned green chilies (if using), and 1 cup of the grated cheese.  Drizzle with a ½ cup enchilada sauce. Top with 4 more tortillas, add the remaining filling, green chilies, 1 cup cheese and top with 4 more tortillas. Lather the top with the remaining enchilada sauce and any additional cheese if you like a cheesy top.

BAKE

Cover tightly with foil(use parchment to prevent foil from touching the casserole) and bake for 30 minutes. Uncover, and bake 10 more minutes.

 Garnish

with diced avocado, cilantro and sour cream. The sour cream really adds a nice creaminess.

This recipe is AMAZING but I have to tell everyone I send it to that the ingredients list is wrong. Could you update it to call for "12 x 6 inch corn or flour tortillas" please? Your instructions (#4) are really calling for 12 even though the ingredients list says 8. I've made it both ways and it is definitely better with all 12. Anyway, absolutely spectacular (and I'm a picky picky girl)!

Delicious, loved the sweet potatoes! It was easy to make and who wouldn’t like this !!

Thanks for yet another scrumptious and simple recipe! It was so fun to make the sauce - and it really does take only a few minutes. I missed the "or" in the instructions for zukes OR sweet potatoes, so used two of the former and one of the latter. I also used fewer corn tortillas than called for, added a poblano pepper, and equal amounts of black beans and chorizo-spiced soy crumbles and it was a huge hit in my household!

THANKS again!

So good! this has become a stable dinner at our house now.

This was honestly the best vegetarian Mexican meal I’ve EVER had - one of my fave meals!! Thank you so much for the recipe.

I love this recipe and have made it exactly as written many times and have also tried with whatever veggies are in my kitchen! It's always a hit. I'm wondering if I could make a batch and freeze the pan -- has anyone tried that and has it turned out okay? Thanks!

Sylvia, I was looking for something hearty and fall-like and this fit the bill. I used vegan Parmesan, (that was all I had.) Filling, healthy and delicious!

Also, I want to thank you for sending your new recipes via email on Saturdays, that way I always have time to see and read it! 

Your recipes are so thorough, covering every type of diet and possible rstrict

I was looking for something hearty and fall like, this definitely fit the bill! Had to use vegan Parmesan, (that is all I had) husband loved it! 

You are my go-to now for new recipes and ideas.  I appreciate all your detail, you make cooking a breeze, thank you so much!

Thank you for this wonderful recipe, my whole family loved it! Your recipes are a constant hit and I appreciate the detail you provide. One small request to improve is that it would be great if you could also provide metric weights (in brackets?) next to ingredients, so that I don’t have to keep converting! Only minor though! Thank you 😊 🇦🇺

This is SO delicious. I can't believe this is the first comment I have ever left on your blog. This is simple to make, with easy ingredients and the flavor has so much depth. I enjoy this with my kids often. I have loved every recipe I have tried from your blog! Thank you!

This is a staple for us. Rich in flavour and statisfys the meat eater in our family.

I made this  added dollop of sour cream my daughter and myself enjoyed. Will make again very flavorful home made  enchilada sauce 
Is so much better than can.
