Vegetable Taco Pie Food

VEGAN TACO PIE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 F.
• Line the bottom of a small casserole baking dish (or an 8-inch spring-loaded cheesecake pan) with parchment paper.
• Place the cashews into a small bowl, cover with boiling water and soak for 15 minutes, or place the cashews into a small stockpot and boil for 10 minutes, drain off the water, then place them into a high-speed blender with all the remaining Sauce Ingredients and blend on high until smooth and creamy.
• While the cashews are soaking, make the Bean-Veggie Layer. Place the diced onions, bell pepper, and jalapeno into a non-stick skillet and sauté for approximately 8 to 9 minutes until tender. If the veggies start to stick splash a little water in the pan.
• Then add all the remaining Bean-Veggie Ingredients into the pan, saute, stirring constantly until heated through, approximately 3 minutes. Then remove from the stove and set aside.
• Place the tortillas onto a large baking sheet and place into a preheated 400 F oven and toast until lightly crisp, approximately 5 minutes, then remove.
• Place one 6-inch tortilla on the bottom of the spring-form pan, then take one 6-inch tortilla and cut it in half and place it on the sides to cover the bottom of the 8-inch spring-form pan (see notes below). Then take ¼ of the bean-veggie mixture and place it on top of the tortillas and spread into a thin layer. Cover the veggie layer with ¼ cup of the sauce, then repeat 3 more times, ending with sauce on top. Note: Don't worry if the sauce doesn't completely cover the entire veggie layers.
• Place the taco pie into a preheated 400 F oven and place a baking sheet over top (cookie sheet) to lock in the heat and bake for 20 minutes until heated through.
• Serve topped with shredded lettuce, chopped tomatoes, avocadoes and cilantro. Cut into wedges, enjoy!

TACO PIE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the tortillas and cook, flipping a few times, until golden, about 3 minutes. Remove with tongs and transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Add the onion to the skillet and cook, stirring, until soft, about 3 minutes. Add the garlic and cayenne and cook 30 seconds. Add the pork and 1/4 teaspoon salt and cook, breaking up the meat, until browned, about 4 minutes. Stir in the tomatoes, chiles and corn. Bring to a simmer and cook until slightly thickened, about 3 minutes. Season with salt. Remove from the heat and stir in the cilantro. Arrange half of the tortillas in the bottom of a 9-to-10-inch pie plate. Top with half of the meat mixture, then half of the cheese. Repeat with the remaining tortillas, meat and cheese. Cover loosely with foil and bake until the cheese melts, about 10 minutes.
