Recipe of the Week: Farmers’ Market Veggie Enchiladas

January 23, 2020

Prep Time: 40 min          Cook Time: 25 min          Total Time: 1 hour 5 minutes              Yield: 8

Ingredients:

  • 1–2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 onion diced
  • 4 garlic cloves, rough chopped
  • 1 red bell pepper diced
  • 1 small yam, diced small (or zucchini)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 ear of corn, kernels cut off (about 1 cup)
  • teaspoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon coriander
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 14 ounce can black beans rinsed, drained
  • 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
  • 2 cups homemade enchilada sauce (or store-bought)
  • 8 x 8-inch whole wheat tortillas (or sub corn)
  • cups grated cheese (8-10 ounces pepper jack, Mexican blend, cheddar, Mozzarella)
  • Optional garnishes: sour cream, avocado, pickled red onions and hot sauce.

Enchilada Sauce Ingredients:

  • 5 ounce can diced tomatoes (with juices) preferably fire-roasted tomatoes
  • ¼ cup water
  • 2 Tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon granulated garlic (or 2 garlic cloves)
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1/4 teaspoon chipotle powder (or smoked paprika for smoky flavor)
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano (or 2 tsp fresh)

Instructions:

  • Preheat oven to 400 F
  • If making the homemade enchilada sauce, place all ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth. The Enchilada sauce will cook as it bakes with enchiladas
  • Make the filling: Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and stir 2-3 minutes until fragrant. Lower heat to medium, add bell pepper, yams, garlic and salt. Saute this until yams and peppers are tender about -7-9 minutes. If mixture gets dry, add a splash of water, lower heat and cover and gently steam until yams are fork-tender. Fold in the fresh corn and cumin, coriander and oregano. Saute 3 more minutes. Remove from heat. Add the black beans, taste for salt, adding more if you like. Stir in half the cilantro.
  • Grease a 9 x 13 baking dish. Pour 1/2 cup of the enchilada sauce and spreading around so the bottom of the pan is nicely coated.
  • Assemble your Enchiladas: Place 1/2 cup filling down the center of the tortilla add 2-3 tablespoons grated cheese over top and wrap it up tightly. Place enchilada seam side down over the sauce. Repeat with the remaining 7 tortillas nestling them side by side. Pour the remaining Enchilada Sauce over the enchiladas, leaving the edges exposed if you like (for crispy edges). Sprinkle with remaining cup of cheese.
  • Place in the hot oven, foiled for 20 minutes then uncover for the last 6-10 minutes until cheese is nice and melty. Let stand 10-15 minutes before serving (tented with foil). Scatter the remaining chopped cilantro over the enchiladas.

Note: You need a total of 3-3 1/2 cups of diced veggies (in addition to the onion).
