Seasonal Mexican Casserole



Seasonal Mexican Casserole

Filling:
1 lb ground turkey
small onion
1-2 cups black beans, soaked and cooked
1 cup corn
seasonal veggies of your choice - I used zucchini and squash
2 tbsp tomato paste
1 1/2 tsp chili powder
3/4 tsp cumin
salt/pepper

Saute turkey and onion for about 5 minutes. When the meat is almost done, add the zucchini. Add everything else and cook until everything has come together and looks fabulous.

Layer a buttered 9x13 with tortillas (whatever you can handle....sprouted wheat, corn, brown rice). Cover the tortillas with the entire meat/veggie mixture. Add another layer of tortillas. Top with cheese. Bake for 15-20 minutes at 325 until everything is warmed through. Garnish with avocado, tomatoes, lettuce, etc.
