Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 medium zucchini, sliced lengthwise about 1/8 thick
2 medium yellow squash, sliced about 1/8 thick
1 eggplant (Sliced lengthwise about 1/4 thick)
1 red pepper, seeded and cut in half
1 bell pepper, seeded and cut in half (yellow)
1 poblano pepper, seeded and cut in half
1 red onion, cut into rounds, and then in half
1 cup black beans, drained
2 ears fresh corn, grilled and removed from cob

2 dozen corn tortillas

Steps:

  • Brush all the vegetables lightly with olive oil. Grill until just done and still crispy. Cut all the vegetables into 2" strips - pat dry and set aside. Use the same system in the oven - set the temperature at 500 degrees so that the vegetables will char and not steam. This recipe makes one large pan of enchiladas or 2 small ones.
  • To make the sauce combine the last 5 ingredients in the list and simmer till the tomatillos are soft. Puree using an imersion blender and set aside.
  • Spray a large 9 x 11 casserole dish with a non-stick spray and then place 1 cup of the sauce on the bottom of the pan - spread to cover the entire bottom of the pan. Dip each tortilla in the hot sauce and then fill with one to two strips of each vegetable, some of the corn and the beans - add some cheese and roll and place in the pan. Pour over the rest of the sauce and top with more shredded cheese.
  • Bake at 350 degrees until bubbly.

These enchiladas were a bit too spicy for my taste, but overall they were very good. I will definitely be making these again, but I will use less chili powder next time.

These enchiladas were a bit bland for my taste. I think next time I will add some more spices to the sauce.

I've made these enchiladas several times now and they are always a favorite. They are so easy to make and the leftovers are even better the next day. I love that I can use whatever vegetables I have on hand, so they are always different.
