VEGETARIAN BLACK BEAN ENCHILADA CASSEROLE

The air conditioner has arrived!!!!!!!!!!!!! It. is. AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!! I can finally live life again aka I can finally cook again. First meal: easy peezy Vegetarian Black Bean Enchilada Casserole. Fast, simple, and delicious! Omit the cheese and you’ve got a vegan situation, but man do I love my cheese.
I make this dish at work but it’s just not quite the same. Why you ask? El Pato. That’s right. El Pato. This dish needs HEAT! And preschoolers may be iffy on that statement so I skip the El Pato addition. However, I’m a firm believer in spicy mexican food because come on. Mild? Please. Now I know not everyone agrees, which is why I separate the sauce and the spice.
