Vegan Enchilada Casserole

So, its sunny, well right now anyway, in NC and you can tell that spring is here and hopefully here to stay!
My kids spent all day, literally, outside. Its 5PM and theyve just now come in doors.
Its absolutely beautiful outside but also quite yellow, which also means I've been out there with them and since its so warm and I don't want to slave over the stove I bring you my version of a vegan enchilada casserole which only takes 30 minutes from start to plate! Perfect right?!
Now, along with this casserole, I just received an LG stylo so of course I had to try out its camera, so its where all the pictures were taken and though I love the camera maybe I should learn food photography as its just simple pictures... But I definitely recommend this phone, especially coming from always choosing iPhones.
Anyway, recipe:

1 box couscous (I buy mine from aldi, which is an amazing place to shop! But the box is roughly around a cup)
1 can 10 oz green or red enchilada sauce (I prefer red)
1 can 4.5 oz green chili's
1 can 10 oz, bag, or fresh corn (around 1 cup)
1 can 10 oz black beans drained and rinsed
1-2 cups left over taco meat (vegan of course)
1-2 medium sized avocados
2-3 Roma tomatoes
Mozzarella and cheddar cheeses (you can measure but I never do and usually just go with what I feel is a good amount)

Cook couscous according to package which usually only takes 5 minutes, yay couscous!! Drain both the corn and the chilis, you only have to rinse the black beans and all of this could be done while the couscous is cooking. Once the couscous is done mix it along with the beans, corn, chilis, and enchilada sauce, left over taco meat and some of both cheeses. I usually make the couscous in a medium sized bowl so I can mix them all together in it and keep more dishes clean. Once its mixed together pour it into an 8X8 casserole dish. Then sprinkle with more cheese and bake in a 350 degree oven for 20 minutes. Top with avocado and tomatoes serve and enjoy!



So this entire post was supposed to be added last Saturday! I'm guesing my mobile blogger app was being a bit crazy but anywho, here it is...
Sorry I've been away I took the week off along with the children and even delivered kittens Tuesday night, but that's another post ❤
