Ready to see how to make this Black Bean and Roasted Veggie Tomatillo Lasagna? First, grab your Kevin’s Natural Foods Tomatillo Taco sauce and your favorite veggies.
Set your oven to 400 degrees. Cut the veggies into uniform, 1-inch pieces and spread them on a cookie sheet. Drizzle them with olive oil and add your garlic, cumin, oregano, chili powder, and salt and pepper.
Roast the veggies for 15 minutes, tossing them halfway through. Meanwhile, combine the diced tomatoes and black beans in a saucepan and warm them over medium heat, stirring occasionally. When the veggies are done (you want them to be crisp-tender), spray a 9×13″ pan with cooking spray. Pour 1/2 cup of Kevin’s Natural Foods Tomatillo Taco sauce on the bottom and spread it evenly. Layer it with 6 corn tortillas. Spread them with 3/4 cup of Kevin’s Natural Foods Tomatillo Taco sauce evenly, half of the tomato/black bean mixture, and then top with 1/3 of the vegetables and 1/3 of the cheese.
Repeat those layers once, starting with the corn tortillas, 3/4 cup of Kevin’s Natural Foods Tomatillo Taco sauce, remaining black bean mixture, 1/3 of the veggies, and 1/3 of the cheese. Top that with one more layer of corn tortillas, 3/4 cup of Kevin’s Natural Foods Tomatillo Taco sauce, the remaining roasted veggies, and the remaining 1/3 of the cheese. Bake it for 20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted.
And you’re done! Top each slice with cilantro, sliced avocado, and shredded cojita cheese if desired.
