Veggie Enchilada Bake

I figured since it was a Holiday I would take my dog for a walk, do laundry, clean, bake, and cook. Here's what I made for dinner.

I know it looks somewhat like my last posting of a dinner meal, but I am trying to use up my ingredients.

I think this was actually pretty tasty. I had seconds.

6-8 corn tortillas
