By Syd It's about time you met the vegetarian option at my family's Thanksgiving—enchilada casserole! When I stopped eating meat several years ago, my mom was totally flummoxed on how to feed me. Granted, I was already a full-grown adult at this point, but she's my mom and she likes to make sure I'm well fed. Three bean enchilada casserole is most definitely a dish to satisfy the taste buds. Mexican dishes are one of my favorite things to eat, but I am kind of picky about them.
