Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Cheesy Vegetarian Enchiladas Casserole.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 375°F (190°C).
Step 2
While it warms up, grab an 8-inch baking dish and give it a light spray with cooking spray to ensure nothing sticks.
Step 3
Now, let’s build some delicious layers! Begin by placing one-third of the quartered corn tortillas at the bottom of your prepared dish, creating a sturdy base.
Step 4
Next, sprinkle half of the cubed sharp Cheddar cheese, along with the chopped onion and sliced black olives, over the tortillas.
Step 5
This combination adds a burst of flavor that you’ll love.
Step 6
Drizzle one-third of the green enchilada sauce over this layer, followed by one-third of the shredded Mexican cheese blend, which will melt beautifully as it bakes.
Step 7
Now, let’s repeat that delightful layering process.
Step 8
Add another one-third of the tortillas, then the remaining Cheddar cheese, onion, and olives.
Step 9
Pour on another third of the enchilada sauce and top it off with another third of the Mexican cheese.
Step 10
For the final touch, place the last layer of tortillas on top, pour the remaining enchilada sauce over them, and finish with the rest of the Mexican cheese blend.
Step 11
This is where the magic happens! To keep all that moisture in, cover your dish with aluminum foil.
Step 12
Pop it into the preheated oven and let it bake for 15 minutes.
Step 13
After that, carefully remove the foil and let it bake for an additional 10 minutes.
Step 14
You’ll know it’s ready when the cheese is bubbly and golden, creating a mouthwatering topping that’s hard to resist.
Step 15
Enjoy the delightful aroma filling your kitchen as you prepare to serve this comforting dish!.
