Jana’s Yummy Mexican Taco Casserole

Ingredients (use vegan versions):

• 1 medium onion, chopped
  
• 1 clove garlic, chopped (optional)
  
• 2 bell peppers, chopped
  
• 1 – 2 cans of your favorite beans
  
• 1 can chopped tomatoes
  
• 1 small can tomato paste
  
• 2 – 3 taco shells, crushed
  
• salt and pepper to taste
  
• 1 teaspoon chili powder
  
• 1 teaspoon cloves (powder is best)
  
• white vinegar
  

Directions:

Fry onion and garlic until soft, add in peppers. Fry for
about 2 minutes, then add beans, chopped tomatoes, tomato
paste. If it’s too thick, add a bit of water. Now add all
the spices and the vinegar and let it cook for about 10
minutes. If the taste isn’t strong enough, add in equal
amounts of chili powder and vinegar, but no more cloves
(they give the recipe the extra zest but if you add in too
much it’s no good). Right before serving mix in crushed taco
shells, then serve hot over rice. Enjoy! 🙂
