Black-Bean Lasagna

This was delicious.  I followed previous reviewers and just sauteed the jalapenos in with the onion and other peppers. I used pepper jack cheese.  

Love this recipe. It is an easy casual group entertaining recipe for those who like Mexican inspired foods and who have friends who are veggies. You don't even have to explain you are serving a meal sans meat, because no one will miss it. Just add a salad and you have a complete filling dinner for at least eight.

Yummy! I didn't bother broiling the jalepenos. I just sauteed them w/the peppers & onions. I used canned tomoatoes instead of fresh. It's a good make ahead recipe. I made it early in the day. Popped it in the oven before my son's school event and set the automatic bake to come on 30 minutes before I expected us to be home. I will use more salsa next time and cheddar instead of the monterey jack. I like to use sharp cheddar since you don't need much to taste it.

Strapping meat-eaters and vegetarians alike have raved over this recipe! I've made it numerous times and it remains a solid winner. Definitely skip the jalapeno prep -- it's not worth the time. Throw in a tablespoon of canned jalapenos with the beans instead. Also I recommend medium salsa and a bit of extra cheese. Yum!
