Number Of Ingredients 23

1 cup red enchilada sauce, homemade or canned, recipe follows
1 teaspoon olive oil
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 small onion, diced
1 jalapeño, seeded and diced
2 1/2 cups sweet potatoes (about 1 large), peeled and cut into 1/2-inch cubes
One 10-ounce can diced tomatoes with green chiles, such as Rotel
1 1/2 cups canned reduced-sodium black beans, rinsed and drained
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, plus more for garnishing
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
10 medium low-carb whole-wheat flour tortillas, such as La Tortilla Factory
2 cups reduced-fat shredded Mexican cheese
Reduced-fat sour cream, for serving, optional
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 1/2 cups tomato sauce
3/4 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth
1/2 teaspoon chipotle chile powder
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1 to 3 chipotle chiles in adobo sauce, chopped
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Put 1/4 cup red enchilada sauce on the bottom of a 13-by-9-inch baking dish.
  • Heat the olive oil over medium-high heat in a large skillet. Add the garlic, onions and jalapeño and cook until the onions become translucent and the garlic is fragrant, about 2 minutes.
  • Add the cubed sweet potatoes, diced tomatoes, black beans, cilantro, cumin, chili powder, salt and pepper to taste and 1/4 cup water. Cover and cook over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until the sweet potatoes are tender, about 10 minutes.
  • Place a generous 1/3 cup filling in the center of each tortilla, roll up and place in the baking dish seam-side down.
  • Top with the remaining 3/4 cup enchilada sauce and the cheese. Bake, covered with foil, until the enchiladas are hot and the cheese is melted, about 10 minutes. Top with more cilantro and serve with sour cream if desired.
  • In a medium saucepan over medium-low heat, add the oil and saute the garlic until it is fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the tomato sauce, chicken broth, chile powder, cumin, chipotle chiles and some salt and pepper. Bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer until slightly thickened, for 5 to 7 minutes. Set aside until ready to use.

The sauce is a little spicy, but it's not too hot. It's the perfect balance of flavors.

These enchiladas are perfect for a weeknight meal. They're easy to make and they're always a hit with my family. I usually serve them with rice and beans.

I'm a vegetarian, so I used black beans instead of chicken. The enchiladas were still delicious. I think this recipe would also be good with tofu or tempeh.

I made these enchiladas in a slow cooker and they turned out perfectly. I just threw all the ingredients in the slow cooker and let it cook on low for 8 hours. They were so easy to make and they were a big hit with my family.

I used a different kind of cheese than the recipe called for, and they still turned out great. I think this recipe is very forgiving, which is always a plus.

I had some trouble rolling the enchiladas, but they still turned out delicious. I think I just need more practice.

These enchiladas were a little too sweet for me. I think I would have preferred to use less sweet potatoes or to add some more heat to the sauce.
