This casserole is packed with protein and fiber thanks to the black beans and rice. The rice also makes it nice and filling so you won’t be reaching for a snack an hour after eating.

Vegan Globetrotter Suggestions and Tips

 

This dish is easy to follow, flexible, and most importantly delicious! I typically make this for dinner but have also served it as brunch on special occasions. I’ve found that it reheats well so it’s perfect for meal prepping. Keep reading for serving suggestions, storing tips, and recipe tips.

 

Serving Suggestions
  • I like to top mine with avocado, hot sauce, and cilantro but feel free to get creative!
  • If you’re looking to bulk it up a bit, you could add black beans or cubed tofu.
  • This would also be great with a side of rice or quinoa.
Storing Tips
  • Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days or in the freezer for 2 months.
  • When you’re ready to eat, simply reheat in the oven or microwave until warmed through.
  • I find that adding a splash of water helps to prevent the casserole from drying out.

 

Recipe Tips
  • To speed up the prep time, I use store-bought salsa and pre-shredded cheese.
  • If you can’t find vegan cheese that shreds easily, simply omit it or use your food processor to grate it into small pieces.
  • You could also swap out the tortillas for gluten-free ones or make your own! Simply combine 1 cup of all-purpose flour with 1/2 cup of water and a pinch of salt. Knead until the dough forms a ball and then let it rest for 30 minutes before using. Roll out into thin tortillas and cook in a dry skillet over medium heat until lightly browned on both sides.

 

I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as I do! If you try it, please let me know how it turns out by leaving a comment below or tagging me @veganglobetrotter on our social media pages. Happy cooking!
