Lightly toasting the tortillas in a dry skillet helps enhance their flavor without adding any calories. Try this technique with nuts and seeds, too.

Ingredients

  1 cup(s) canned tomato sauce   
  3/4 cup(s) fat free salsa   
1/4 cup(s) cilantro, fresh, chopped   
2 tsp chili powder   
1 tsp ground cumin   
5 medium corn tortilla(s), 6-inches each   
  30 oz canned black beans, drained, rinsed and mashed   
  8 oz chopped green chili(es), canned   
1/2 cup(s) low fat shredded cheddar cheese   

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Combine tomato sauce, salsa, cilantro, chili powder and cumin in a small bowl.

  • Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add as many tortillas as will fit in one layer. Cook about 1 minute, turning once, until lightly toasted. Remove and set aside. Repeat with remaining tortillas.

  • Spoon 1/4 cup of tomato sauce mixture over bottom of a 9-inch pie plate or other round, shallow baking dish. Top with a tortilla and 1/4 cup more sauce. Spread with 1/2 cup of mashed beans; top with 2 tablespoons of green chilies and 1 tablespoon of shredded cheese. Repeat with remaining ingredients to form 3 more layers and then top with remaining tortilla, sauce and cheese.

  • Cover dish with foil and bake for 30 minutes. Uncover and bake until heated through and sauce bubbles around edges, about 5 minutes more. Cut into 6 wedges and serve. Yields 1 wedge per serving.

Notes

  • Store leftovers for up to 3 days in the refrigerator.

I didn't use any cheese in the making of this and it was delicious! I also layered in some mushrooms and spinach to have more veggies (because you can never have enough veggies!) DELICIOUS and filling!

Delicious! And very filling! The height was a bit intimidating as I was stacking the layers but it held together perfectly! I'll definitely make this again!
