It's super easy to make, can easily be doubled and freezes beautifully! Oh- and very little cleanup. Seriously, what more could a busy Mama want?
Quinoa Enchilada Casserole
1 cup uncooked quinoa, rinsed
4 cloves garlic minced
1/2 small can diced green chilis
1/2 red onion or one small white onion, diced
2 bell peppers, diced
1/2 cup frozen corn
1 15 oz can red enchilada sauce
1 can diced tomatoes
1 can black beans
1 tsp cumin
2 tsp chili powder
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
avocado, diced
sour cream
salt & pepper to taste
Step 1- Cook your rinsed quinoa in a pot with your garlic cloves.
Step 2- Slice & dice remaining ingredients while you wait for the quinoa to cook. Throw it all into a large bowl.
Step 3- Add quinoa when it's done cooking and stir it all together. Adjust seasonings as needed.
Step 4- Dump half of your quinoa mixture into a 9X13 glass baking dish. Sprinkle with only 1 cup of the shredded cheddar and then add the remaining quinoa mixture over it. Freeze NOW or bake at 350 for approximately 45 minutes.
Top with diced avocado, remaining shredded cheese, sour cream and enjoy. SO good. Seriously- amazeballs good- even the husband, who is VERY picky, loves this dish. You'll seriously enjoy this easy and healthy recipe, I guarantee it!
