These vegetarian enchiladas are easy to make, delicious and very filling. They are also very accommodating to modifications. I frequently add mushrooms and other vegetables.

Time 50m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
3 cups diced zucchini
¼ cup canned diced green chiles
1 teaspoon chili powder
¼ teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
¼ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon chili powder
⅛ teaspoon black pepper
1 cup milk
¼ cup canned diced green chiles
1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
8 (8 inch) flour tortillas
½ cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
1 ½ cups chopped tomatoes

Steps:

  • Preheat an oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the onion and garlic in the oil until tender, about 5 minutes. Stir in zucchini, 1/4 cup diced chiles, 1 teaspoon chili powder, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Cook until softened, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove zucchini mixture from skillet and reserve.
  • Melt butter in the skillet over medium low heat. Stir in flour, salt, remaining 1 teaspoon chili powder, and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Pour in milk; whisk until thickened, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in the remaining 1/4 cup of diced chiles and 1 cup of Monterey Jack cheese.
  • Stir 1/2 cup of cheese sauce into the zucchini mixture. Spoon 1/3 cup squash mixture down the center of each tortilla; roll up. Place filled tortillas in prepared baking dish, pour remaining cheese sauce over. Cover and bake in preheated oven until hot, about 25 minutes. Remove from oven; sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup Monterey Jack cheese and the chopped tomatoes.

I had some leftover zucchini and I wasn't sure what to do with it. I found this recipe and it was the perfect way to use it up.

These enchiladas were a bit too spicy for me, but my husband loved them. I think next time I'll use a milder salsa.

These were so easy to make and they turned out great! I used a store-bought enchilada sauce and it worked perfectly.
