Mushroom and Spinach Enchiladas
Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 onion, diced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 8 ounces mushrooms, sliced
- 4 cups fresh spinach
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 can (15 oz) black beans, drained and rinsed
- 1 can (15 oz) enchilada sauce
- 8 small flour tortillas
- 1 1/2 cups shredded cheese (cheddar or Mexican blend)
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
- In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
- Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute.
- Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet and cook until they release their liquid and start to brown, about 5-7 minutes.
- Stir in the fresh spinach and cook until wilted, about 2-3 minutes.
- Season the mushroom and spinach mixture with cumin, chili powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir in the black beans and 1/2 cup of the enchilada sauce. Cook for 2-3 minutes until heated through.
- Spoon a small amount of the remaining enchilada sauce into the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
- Divide the mushroom and spinach filling evenly among the 8 flour tortillas. Roll up each tortilla and place seam-side down in the baking dish.
- Pour the remaining enchilada sauce over the rolled tortillas, spreading it evenly to cover them. Sprinkle the shredded cheese over the top.
- Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Garnish with chopped fresh cilantro, if desired, and serve hot.
