Instructions:
1. Preheat oven to 400°F (205°C), and bring a medium saucepan of water to a boil. Spray a 9x13 baking dish with cooking spray, or rub down lightly with a bit of oil.
2. Cook the lentils and quinoa in the saucepan until cooked, about 15-20 minutes.
3. Meanwhile, peel and thinly slice the potatoes.
4. Heat a medium frying pan over medium-high heat, and drizzle in 2 tsp of oil. When the oil is hot, add in the chopped half onion, using a wooden spoon to move the onion around the pan rapidly. Optionally, sprinkle onions with salt. Cook until browned in spots.
5. To a high powered blender, add soaked cashews, jalapeno, lemon juice, artichoke hearts, adobo sauce, nutritional yeast, neutral plant milk, chili powder, cumin, salt, pepper, and optional 1 tsp of oil. Blend until smooth. Add water to thin mixture as needed.
6. Taste, and adjust as needed. Add more nutritional yeast for cheesiness, adobo sauce for heat and smokiness, and seasonings for added depth of flavor. Set cheese mixture aside.
7. To a large frying pan over medium heat, add oil, diced onion, and chopped mushrooms and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add black beans, and the lentil and quinoa mixture. Drop the heat down to medium low, and add taco seasoning. Stir to combine. This is the “meat” mixture.
8. In the 9x13 baking dish, layer the potato slices on top of one another. When the bottom of the pan is completely covered, spread the “meat” mixture evenly over the potatoes, making sure to fill in the gaps. Evenly spread salsa on top of the “meat” layer. Add more potatoes on top of the salsa layer. To finish, spread the “cheese” mixture on top.
9. Cover with a sheet of tin foil, and bake for 1 hour.
10. Remove tin foil, and bake for another 15 minutes, until the “cheese” has browned a bit on top.
Serve with guacamole and a sprinkle of cilantro
