Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 medium zucchini (about 8 ounces), thinly sliced on the diagonal
Kosher salt
One 15-ounce can pinto beans, drained and rinsed
1 cup prepared pico de gallo or home-style fresh salsa
1 tablespoon fresh whole oregano leaves
Six 6-inch corn tortillas, halved
1 cup shredded Monterey Jack or Chihuahua cheese
2 tablespoons fresh cilantro leaves

Steps:

  • Sprinkle the zucchini slices all over with 1/2 teaspoon salt. Set aside. Stir together the beans, pico de gallo and oregano in a medium bowl.
  • Arrange the following in layers in a 9-inch deep-dish pie pan or 10-inch round microwave-safe dish: 4 of the tortilla halves, one-third of the bean mixture, one-third of the zucchini and 1/4 cup of the cheese.
