Our simple yet delicious twist on Taco Tuesday, this vegetarian enchilada casserole comes together in just a few minutes and bakes up in under a half hour.

Friday: Pizza Quesadillas
We love a Friday night pizza night, but making these ooey gooey pizza quesadillas is almost as easy ordering delivery. Stuff them with mozzarella, pepperoni, ground sausage or even chopped bacon to really pack in the flavor. Serve your quesadillas with your favorite marinara on the side and Friday night dinner is a guaranteed win.
