VEGETARIAN MEXICAN PASTA BAKE



Vegetarian Mexican Pasta Bake image

I got this off of MSN and have modified it a little to our tastes. The recipe calls for making them in individual servings but I usually just make it as a casserole. Very rich and not for the fat conscious - we don't have this very often. It also makes for a few dishes.

VEGAN MEXICAN CASSEROLE



Vegan Mexican Casserole image

This is a Mexican casserole recipe from my mother that I translated to vegan. I love this recipe and so does my non-vegan wife. (I add real cheese to her portion and top it with real sour cream.) It is easy to change and transform to make it your own. Enjoy!
