Vegan Cheesy Mexican Tortilla Bake

Ingredients

  • FOR THE CHEESE (Makes 2 1/2 cups)
  • 1 cup (150g) raw unsalted cashews (See NOTES below for subs and lower-fat option)
  • 1 cup (240g) mild heat runny/not too chunky salsa (I love Trader Joe's or Sprouts Mild, you can use a medium heat if you don't mind the dish being on the spicy side, not recommended with kids)
  • 3/4 cup (180g) PLAIN dairy-free yogurt (I used Silk Soy yogurt found at Kroger OR SO Delicious "Unsweetened" Plain coconut yogurt)
  • 1/4 cup + 1 tablespoon (75g) water
  • 1 1/4 teaspoons smoked paprika
  • 1 1/4 teaspoons ground cumin
  • 3/4-1 teaspoon fine salt (this will vary depending on the salsa used. Start with 3/4 and keep in mind the final taste after baked you want to stand out)
  • FOR THE CASSEROLE
  • 9 small corn tortillas, cut into fourths
  • Two 15 oz cans low-sodium black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 cup (240g) salsa for middle layer
  • 2 cups (293g) sweet corn (I used frozen)
  • Optional: Green onions for garnish
  • NOTE
  • The yogurt CANNOT be subbed here for milk, that will RUIN the recipe. The yogurt is thick, creamy and tangy and using a milk will not only make it bland, it will make the rest of the dish watery and soggy. Follow the recipe for the correct results.
