I've been looking through "Meatless Mexican Home Cooking" (Nancy
Zaslavsky) for something I would make for this dinner.

Jack jumped right in with the rice and potato dishes, so I'll suggest
Zaslavsky's Baked Layered Tortilla-Chile Casserole, Pastel del Pobres
(cake of the poor).

It's a lasagne-type stack of corn tortillas, quickly fried as for
enchiladas, and arranged with layers of tomato sauce, crema, dry
cheese, and rajas (strips of roasted chiles), then bake in a 375F oven
for about 15 minutes.

Looks good to me, especially for a potluck. It could be good warm from
the oven or at room temp.
