Aha, found a few more soups/casserole in my "stash", I knew I had 'em!! I know you're vegan, but I'll leave the recipes intact for you to substitute (or eliminate) as you desire . . .
Tortilla Black Bean Casserole
Ingredients
2 cups onion(s) chopped
1 1/2 cup green pepper chopped
1 14.5-ounce can tomatoes cut up
3/4 cup picante sauce (salsa) mild or medium
2 cloves garlic minced
2 tsp. ground cumin
2 15-ounce cans black beans, drained (can also use 1 can black beans, 1 can of kidney beans if desired)
12 6-inch corn tortillas
2 cups shredded Monterey Jack or Cheddar/Jack combo cheese
Instructions
In a large skillet, combine onion, green pepper, undrained tomatoes, picante sauce, garlic and cumin. Bring to boiling; reduce heat. Simmer, uncovered for 10 minutes. Stir in the beans.
In a 13 x 9 baking pan (lasagna pan size or so), spread 1/3 of the bean mixture over the bottom. Top with half of the tortillas, overlapping as necessary, and then half of the cheese (1 cup). Add another 1/3 of the bean mixture, remaining tortillas and bean mixture. Cover and bake at 350 degrees F. for 30 to 35 minutes. Sprinkle with remaining cheese. Let stand for 10 minutes.
Top with optional items if desired: sliced tomatoes, shredded lettuce, green onions, sliced black olives, sour cream, salsa.
