Ingredients You'll Need
cooking spray
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 onion, chopped
1 red bell pepper, chopped
1 /2 green bell pepper, chopped
2 chopped tomatoes
1 (14.25 ounce) can vegetarian refried black beans
2 cans corn kernels
1 (4 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
1 teaspoon ground cumin
salt and ground black pepper to taste
½ cup chopped fresh cilantro
1 (4 oz.) can green chilis, undrained
1 can enchilada sauce
1 can tomato sauce
1 cup vegetable broth
1 lime, juiced
12 pack corn tortillas
2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese, divided, Mexican blend and mild cheddar
1 cup chopped avocado
1 cup sour cream, or to taste
Directions
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Spray a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat; cook and stir onion, tomatoes, chopped spinach, corn and bell pepper in hot oil until tender, about 8 minutes. Separate pan, reduce heat to medium-low and add refried black beans and cream cheese; stir well. Season with cumin, salt, and pepper. Simmer until bean mixture is hot, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat.
Place cilantro, green chilis and liquid, salsa, tomato sauce, vegetable broth, lime juice, garlic, and oregano in a food processor; blend until smooth, about 10 pulses. Spread about 1/3 cilantro salsa mixture in prepared baking dish.
Spread beans and veggie mixture evenly down the center of each tortilla and sprinkle with 1 cup Cheddar cheese. Roll tortillas around the cheese and bean fill and arrange enchiladas in the prepared baking dish, seam sides down.
Pour remaining cilantro salsa mixture over enchiladas and sprinkle with remaining 1 cup Cheddar cheese.
Bake in preheated oven until cheese is melted and sauce is bubbly, 20 to 30 minutes. Garnish with avocado, tomatoes, and sour cream.
