INGREDIENTS:

  1. 1 small yellow onion, chopped
  2. 2 teaspoons minced garlic
  3. 1 10 oz. can RO*TEL diced tomatoes and green chilies
  4. ¼ cup chopped green pepper
  5. ¼ cup chopped red or orange pepper
  6. 1 cup of 1-inch cubed raw sweet potato
  7. 1/2 cup fresh corn
  8. 1 cup ½” cubed extra-firm organic tofu
  9. 1 cup black beans, drained and rinsed
  10. 1 (2 ounce) can sliced black olives
  11. 2 cups cooked brown rice
  12. ½ teaspoon salt
  13. ¼ teaspoon cumin
  14. ¼ teaspoon smoked paprika
  15. Just a dash of cayenne pepper (optional)
  16. 8 – 10 large soft “whole wheat” tortillas
  17. 1 large bag Follow Your Heart™  shredded Vegan cheese

DIRECTIONS: tortilla pie
In a large non-stick skillet over medium high heat, heat corn or grape seed oil.  Add the first 3 ingredients and sauté for 2 minutes, stirring constantly.  Add ingredients 4 through 8 and continue cooking, stirring constantly for another 5 minutes.  Remove skillet from heat and add ingredients 9 through 15, mix until well-combined.  Set mixture aside for 10 minutes to allow the flavors to blend.

Grease a 9” x 2.5” Round Pyrex baking dish and place one tortilla on the bottom.  Spoon a thin layer of veggie mixture evenly over tortilla, leaving ½’ from the edge of tortilla, then sprinkle with shredded vegan “cheese.”  Repeat layers, ending with soft tortilla. Finish Tortilla Pie off with a thin layer of “RED SAUCE” (recipe below), then sprinkle with remaining cheese and bake in 350° oven for 30 – 40 minutes, or until the sides of the Pie are bubbly.

Remove Pie from oven and let cool/set for 10 minutes. Garnish Pie with fresh chopped parsley, or cilantro.  Cut pie into wedge-shaped portions and serve with additional garnishes (below).

RED SAUCE:

In a high-speed blender, add 2 small cans Ro*Tel Tomatoes & Green Chiles + 2 tablespoons of organic cold-pressed grape seed or avocado oil.  Blend at high speed only until tomato sauce looks “creamy.”
