Ugly dinner

I thought we'd just eat leftover pasta tonight, but then I realized Kyle will be eating out tomorrow, so I'll just save it until then. No sense in cooking a meal for 2 little people who won't eat anyway!

Tonight I made a veggie enchilada casserole and I must say...it was fantastic! I didn't miss the cheese AT ALL. I think it was mostly because of the enchilada sauce. Almost all pre-made sauces have soy, dairy, or gluten in them, but I found that Kroger (store brand) did not! I got a jar of each kind, green and red, and used both. They were perfectly spicy, but not over the top.

I put a thin layer of sauce in a 9x13 pan, and then a layer of tostada shells. I know you normally use corn tortillas and fry them first, but #1 ain't nobody got time for that #2 I hate the way frying tortillas makes the house smell and #3 less oil. Then I added chopped carrots and onion and a can of drained/rinsed beans. Then more sauce and tostadas. Then chopped squash and bell pepper and a can of drained corn. Topped with more sauce, tostadas, and sauce again. Bake at 350 until hot and bubbly.

As you can see...this is one UGLY dinner! Ugly but delicious! This is also a great way to use up Mexican leftovers. And no, the kids didn't eat it. Boo on them!
