  • Author: Lauren Baker
  • Total Time: 4 minute

Ingredients

– 8 corn tortillas
– 1 can (15 oz) black beans, drained and rinsed
– 1 cup corn kernels (fresh, frozen, or canned)
– 1 cup diced bell peppers (red, green, or yellow)
– 1 cup chopped spinach (fresh or frozen)
– 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, Monterey Jack, or a blend)
– 1 can (10 oz) enchilada sauce
– 1 tablespoon olive oil
– 1 teaspoon cumin
– 1 teaspoon chili powder
– Salt and pepper to taste
– Fresh cilantro (for garnish, optional)


Instructions

You’ll find that preparing Vegetarian Enchiladas is straightforward when you follow these steps:

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Sauté Vegetables: In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add diced bell peppers and cook for 3-4 minutes until softened.
3. Add Spinach and Spices: Stir in chopped spinach, cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Cook until spinach is wilted, about 1-2 minutes.
4. Mix in Beans and Corn: Add black beans and corn to the skillet. Mix well and cook for another 2-3 minutes until heated through.
5. Assemble Enchiladas: Spread a small amount of enchilada sauce on the bottom of a baking dish. Fill each tortilla with the vegetable mixture and a sprinkle of shredded cheese. Roll and place seam-side down in the dish.
6. Cover with Sauce and Cheese: Pour the remaining enchilada sauce over the rolled tortillas. Sprinkle the rest of the shredded cheese on top.
7. Bake: Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for 20 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
8. Serve: Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving.
