Summer Squash Enchiladas image

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

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 16

cooking spray
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
3 cups chopped yellow summer squash
1 (4 ounce) can diced green chile peppers, divided
2 teaspoons chili powder, divided
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
¼ teaspoon salt
⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper
1 cup milk
1 ½ cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese, divided
8 (8 inch) flour tortillas
1 ½ cups chopped tomatoes

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish lightly with cooking spray.
  • Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir onion and garlic until slightly softened, 3 to 5 minutes. Add summer squash; cook and stir until almost tender, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in half of the green chile peppers, 1 teaspoon chili powder, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper; cook for 1 minute. Remove from heat.
  • Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir in remaining 1 teaspoon chili powder, flour, salt, and 1/8 teaspoon pepper; cook for 1 minute. Pour in milk and stir until sauce thickens, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat. Stir in 1 cup Monterey Jack cheese; add remaining green chile peppers.
  • Stir 1/2 cup sauce into the squash mixture. Spoon 1/3 cup of the squash and sauce mixture into the center of each tortilla; roll up.
  • Arrange filled tortillas in the baking dish. Cover with remaining sauce. Cover baking dish with aluminum foil.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until heated through, about 25 minutes. Top with remaining 1/2 cup Monterey Jack cheese and tomatoes.

These enchiladas were a bit bland for my taste. I would add more spices next time.
