Step 1
Start by bringing some water to a boil in a saucepan. Once it's boiling, add the rice, give it a quick stir, then lower the heat, cover, and let it simmer gently for about 20 minutes until the rice is tender. While the rice is cooking, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2
Next, heat a medium frying pan over medium-high heat and add the soy crumbles, tomatoes along with their juice, chili powder, cumin, and taco seasoning. Cook everything together, stirring occasionally and breaking up the tomatoes as you go, for around 10 minutes until the mixture is well combined and fragrant.

Step 3
Grab an 8x8 inch baking dish and lightly grease it. Lay one flour tortilla on the bottom, then start layering: spread half of the beans, some jalapeno slices, the cooked rice, salsa, the soy mixture, and then sprinkle with 1 cup of shredded Cheddar cheese. Repeat the layers starting with another tortilla, finishing off with the remaining 1½ cups of cheese on top.

Step 4
Pop the dish into the oven and bake for about 15 minutes, or until everything is heated through and the cheese has melted nicely. Serve it up warm and enjoy!

How to serve
Serve with a side of fresh salsa, guacamole, or a cool dollop of sour cream. A simple green salad or some roasted corn can add extra color and texture to the meal. For a little heat, sprinkle with chopped jalapeños or hot sauce.
Storage & leftovers
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days. Keep the tortillas separate from the filling to prevent them from getting soggy. Reheat gently in a pan or microwave, adding a splash of water to keep the filling moist.
