Ever feel that afternoon grumble, but you just don’t know what to eat? You look in the fridge and find yourself searching for the right ingredients to just appear so you can make the perfect dish.

So instead of making a peanut butter jelly sandwich or a smoothie, opt for a single-serving enchilada lasagna dish. Made with layers of black beans, diced tomatoes, cheese, onions, and red peppers, this one-of-a-kind meal doesn’t require much time to make. All you need is a mini cast-iron skillet and a hungry tummy. Check out the whole recipe below.
