• Repeat with a layer of 1/3 of the tortillas and the remaining half of the beans, corn and green chilies. Spread 1/3 of the enchilada sauce on top and sprinkle with 1/3 of the cheese.

• Spread 1/2 cup enchilada sauce in a 3-quart shallow baking dish. Line the bottom of the baking dish with 6 tortillas, overlapping as needed. Spread with half the remaining enchilada sauce. Top with the vegetable mixture and half the cheese. Top with the remaining tortillas and enchilada sauce.

VEGGIE "CHICKEN" ENCHILADA CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a skillet on medium high, sauté the Quorn tenders in oil until they're browned; set aside.
• Mix together the enchilada sauce, onion, garlic, cumin, ancho, tabasco to taste (I only put in about 1/4 teaspoon, because I'm a whimp), and cilantro (if using).
• Combine the shredded cheeses together.
• Lightly grease (I use cooking spray) a large deep casserole dish; pour a little of the sauce mixture into the bottom of the dish, about 1/4 cup, and roll the dish in your hands to coat the bottom with the sauce.
• Break up the chips a bit so that they'll lay better in the dish, but not so small that they'll disintegrate in the sauce- no smaller than, say, fifty-cent pieces (you're going to make at least two layers of chips/tenders/sauce, so keep that in mind for the next steps; three layers is better, but kind of hard to achieve because of how the chips lay and how much space they take up in the dish).
• Add a layer of chips to the bottom of the dish, top it with some of the browned Quorn tenders, then dot it with some of the sour cream, then some of the cheese, then sauce.
• Repeat the layers until you're out of Quorn, sauce, cheese, etc- but make sure to end with a cheese layer.
• Cover the casserole dish and bake for 25 minutes; remove the lid and bake for another 10 minutes, or until the cheese on top is golden and browned, then serve and enjoy!
• Note: I've tried making this without browning the Quorn first, and I don't recommend it; frozen Quorn releases liquid and can turn the casserole all liquidy- still tastes good, but isn't the right consistency.
• Also, the casserole tastes quite good with beans such as black soybeans added to it.
