Vegetable Enchiladas image

Another winner from Jeanne Lemlin's Quick Vegetarian Pleasures. I usually like my Mexican dishes spicy, but there is something about this simple sauce I love. It brings out the flavor of the vegetables. I make the sauce as written, but feel free to add any favorite spices to it.

Time 42m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 medium onion, diced
2 medium zucchini, quartered lengthwise and thinly sliced
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 (4 ounce) can chopped green chilies, drained
1 1/2 cups cooked kidney beans, rinsed and drained (I use black or pinto beans)
salt
fresh ground black pepper
8 (8 inch) flour tortillas
2 cups monterey jack cheese, grated
1 (28 ounce) can tomato puree
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/3 cup cilantro, finely chopped
1 large garlic clove, pressed
1/4 teaspoon salt
fresh ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and saute 5 minutes. Stir in the zucchini and oregano and cook until tender but not mushy, about 7 minutes. Remove the pan from heat and stir in the chiles, beans, salt and pepper. Let the mixture cool.
  • Preheat oven to 350. To make the sauce, combine the tomato puree, heavy cream, cilantro, garlic, salt and pepper.
  • To assemble the enchiladas, pour a layer of sauce on bottom of large casserole dish. Spoon one eighth of the bean mixture along center of tortilla, then sprinkle on 2 tablespoons of the cheese. Roll the enchilada and place seam-side down in baking dish. Repeat with remaining tortillas.
  • Spoon the remaining sauce over all the enchiladas, and sprinkle remaining cheese on top.
  • Bake 25 minutes, or until hot and bubbly.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my enchiladas turned out really dry. I think I may have overcooked them.

I found these enchiladas to be a bit too cheesy. I think I'll use less cheese next time.
