Step‑by‑Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9x13 inch baking dish with cooking spray or olive oil.
- In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté for about 5 minutes.
- Stir in the minced garlic, diced red bell pepper, and zucchini. Cook for another 5 minutes.
- Add corn kernels, black beans, chili powder, ground cumin, salt, and pepper to the skillet. Cook for 2 additional minutes.
- In the greased baking dish, spread a layer of enchilada sauce evenly across the bottom.
- Layer 3-4 corn tortillas over the sauce, add half of the vegetable mixture, followed by 1/3 of the shredded cheese.
- Repeat with another set of tortillas, the remaining vegetable mixture, and another 1/3 of the cheese, pouring ½ cup of enchilada sauce over this layer.
- Top with remaining tortillas, last of the enchilada sauce, and final 1/3 of shredded cheese.
- Cover the baking dish with foil and bake for 20 minutes.
- After 20 minutes, remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes or until the cheese is golden and bubbly.
- Let the casserole rest for 5 minutes to set before slicing.
- Sprinkle freshly chopped cilantro on top before serving.
- Serve with optional toppings like avocado or sour cream.

Notes
Let the casserole sit for at least 5 minutes after baking for cleaner slices. Customize layers with different beans or veggies as preferred.
