eclipse m2eclipse

I've disabled m2eclipse plugin for a project by clicking on "Disable Maven Nature" as shown in the Figure below. Then the Maven entry disappeared from the menu and I'm unable to restore it.

enter image description here

How do I restore/reset/re-enable so that the entry appears again?

PS 1: I'd like to do that without re-importing the project.

PS 2: I've looked in ${WORKSPACE}/.metadata\.plugins\org.eclipse.m2e.core.ui and ${WORKSPACE}/.metadata\.plugins\org.eclipse.m2e.core but nothing seems related.

Solution:

Go to the project menu (right click on Package Explorer) > Configure > Convert to Maven Project

This should restore the entry in the project menu.
