Vegan Enchilada Lasagna Easy Plant-Based Recipe (2024)

This Vegan Enchilada Lasagna is simple to make, delicious, healthy-ish, and uses ingredients available at most grocery stores.

Start with a Quick Tofu Scramble

It is so easy. Vegan Enchilada Lasagna starts with a simple tofu scramble. Just crumble one package of tofu and add a can of drained black beans, chopped tomatoes, onions, and peppers.

I don’t think mushrooms are a traditional enchilada ingredient, but I had some and it sounded good so here they are. I sauteed them as well.

Then, in the bottom of a pan suitable for lasagna, spread a few tablespoons of your favorite enchilada sauce.

Corn Tortillas for Enchilada Lasagna

Corn tortilla shells that have been cut in half layered up almost perfectly in this square pan. I used an 8″ x 8″ ceramic one and everything fit nicely. A 13″ x 8″ one would also work well. The final lasagna would be a little thinner and you can use a full corn tortilla in the center to fill the gaps. I’m packing, trying to get organized to move, so this is what I could find!

Add one half corn tortilla over the space in the middle and you’ve got a nice, solid layer.

Spread about half the tofu scramble mixture onto the corn tortilla layer.

Then, add about half the mushrooms and more enchilada sauce.

On top of that, add a nice, thick layer of fresh, yummy spinach.

Use Your Favorite Shredded Vegan Cheese

I used some Daiya cheddar cheese shreds, but whatever is your favorite will do here. More enchilada sauce, of course.

The green sauce is a guacamole salsa I found at the local grocery store. I used the Hernadez brand, but this can be easily omitted or simply use a ripe avocado blended with a little regular or green/verde salsa.

Then do it all again … spread out the rest of the tofu scramble.

More mushrooms, more spinach … then another layer of corn tortillas, a good amount of enchilada sauce, guacamole sauce if you have it (don’t worry if you don’t!), and a handful or two of vegan cheddar cheese shreds.

Bake it all, uncovered, at 400 degrees F for about 30 minutes and voila, yummy, delicious, gooey, enchilada lasagna made entirely from plants.

Mmm … It’s definitely vegan comfort food!

We ate this about three days in a row before it was all gone. It makes six decent sized servings.
