Tortilla beany bake

TORTILLA BEANY BAKE (from the vegetarian society website)
(I like this one as it can be adapted to use whatever beans you have and it works with fresh spinach. I also make my own sauce for it and generally use dried beans, soaked and cooked as per instructions.)

Ingredients
5 - Tortilla wraps (large)
2 - medium Red onion, thinly sliced
170g/6 oz - Frozen spinach (will defrost to 75g/3 oz)
350g/12 oz - Tinned Flageolet beans (drained weight)
300ml/10 oz - Half fat crème fraiche (or natural yoghurt)
425g jar - Ready made tomato pasta sauce
100g/4 oz - Vegetarian cheddar cheese, grated

You will also need a circular ceramic baking dish deep enough to hold the Tortilla layers.

Method

1. Heat the oven to 190°C/375°F/Gas 5.

2. Grill the wraps on both sides until beginning to crisp.

3. Sauté the onion in a little oil.

4. Mix the spinach, beans and crème fraiche together.

5. Layer the Tortilla in the following order: wrap, 1/3 tomato sauce, ½ the sauteed onion, wrap, ½ the bean mixture, wrap, 1/3 tomato sauce, ½ the sauteed onion, wrap ½ the bean mixture, wrap 1/3 tomato sauce and cheese.

6. Bake for 15-20 minutes.
