SPINACH AND MUSHROOM ENCHILADAS WITH CILANTRO CREAM SAUCE



Spinach and Mushroom Enchiladas With Cilantro Cream Sauce image

I LOVE these spinach enchiladas. They are just like the ones served at one of my fave restaurants! If you like spinach, you will love these. If you don't like spinach- you will probably find that this recipe changes your mind. (Altered recipe after reviews regarding the saltiness and amount of sauce. I have not had that problem, but do not want anyone to have a bad result. Please do try this and enjoy it.)

Time 35m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

12 corn tortillas or 12 flour tortillas
1 1/2 cups monterey jack cheese, shredded
1 tablespoon butter
1 small onion, minced
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 lb mushroom, chopped
1/4 cup white wine
12 ounces fresh spinach, washed, drained and coarsely chopped
1/4 cup lime juice or 1/4 cup wine
3/4 cup water
season salt, to taste (reduced to 1 t from 1 T and it was still considered salty please adjust to your taste or leave out a) (optional)
1 tablespoon chicken bouillon granule
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1/2 cup cilantro, chopped, use the amount that suits your taste
1 cup sour cream

Steps:

  • Filling: Heat butter in a large skillet over medium heat and saute onions, garlic and mushrooms until soft and liquid has evaporated, about 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Remove half of the mushroom mixture and set aside, reserving for the sauce.
  • Add wine and cook for 2 minutes more.
  • Add spinach and cook until spinach is wilted and liquid has evaporated. Taste and add salt or season salt to taste IF NEEDED.
  • Sauce: In a small sauce pan combine water, wine/juice, seasoned salt, chicken bouillon and garlic powder. Stir to dissolve before adding reserved mushroom mixture, sour cream and cilantro. Reduce heat to simmer until sauce just begins to thicken.
  • Preheat oven to 350°F
  • Wrap tortillas in paper towels and heat in microwave for a minute or so just to soften them.
  • Divide filling evenly among the warm tortillas, fill and roll and place them seam side down in a greased 9x13 pan.
  • Pour sauce over enchiladas, top with shredded cheese and bake 10-15 minutes- just until cheese is melted- browned if you like- and the entire dish has heated through.

SPINACH AND MUSHROOM ENCHILADAS

Categories     Vegetable     Bake     Vegetarian

Yield 4 to 6

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 dozen flour tortillas
1 package frozen chopped spinach
1/2 lb. crimini mushrooms, sliced
1 medium onion, chopped
1 Tb. olive oil
1 tsp. salt
Spray olive oil
8 oz. cream cheese
8 oz. sharp cheddar cheese, grated
16 oz. mild salsa
1 - 15 oz. can black olives, halved

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 11 3/4 x 7 1/2 x 1 3/4 inch glass pyrex with spray olive oil to coat completely and set aside. Thaw the frozen spinach and squeeze out as much of the water as possible. In a non-stick frying pan heat the olive oil on medium heat until hot but not smoking. Add the mushrooms and saute until all the liquid is released and evaporates. Add the chopped onions to the pan with the mushrooms and saute until the onions are translucent. Season with salt. Combine the mushrooms and onions with the drained and squeezed spinach. Mix in the cream cheese and combine thoroughly. Cover the bottom of the pyrex dish with half of the salsa. Spread about 3 tablespoons of the mixture on each tortilla spreading to cover most of the tortilla. Roll up and place seam down in the pyrex dish. Continue spreading and rolling the tortillas until all have been used. Cover the enchiladas with the remaining salsa. Spread the sharp cheddar cheese over all the enchiladas. Dot with halved olives. Bake uncovered in a 350 degree F. oven for 35 to 40 minutes or until heated through and cheese is melted. Serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Prepare the Spinach and Mushrooms: Wash the spinach thoroughly and chop it finely. Clean and slice the mushrooms.
  • Season the Filling: Don't be afraid to adjust the seasonings in the filling to your taste. Add more chili powder or cumin if you like a spicy kick, or increase the garlic and onion for a more savory flavor.
  • Use Fresh Tortillas: Fresh tortillas will make your enchiladas more pliable and easier to roll. If you can't find fresh tortillas, you can warm up store-bought tortillas in the microwave or oven before using them.
  • Don't Overfill the Enchiladas: Overfilling the enchiladas will make them difficult to roll and may cause them to fall apart. Aim for about 1/4 cup of filling per enchilada.
  • Bake Until the Cheese is Melted and Bubbling: The enchiladas are done baking when the cheese is melted and bubbly. This usually takes around 20-25 minutes.

Conclusion:

Spinach and mushroom enchiladas are a delicious and satisfying meal that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They're also a great way to get your daily dose of vegetables. With a little planning and effort, you can easily make these enchiladas at home. So next time you're looking for a tasty and healthy meal, give this recipe a try!
