Instructions
- Make the enchilada sauce and set aside. (Or skip this step if using your own sauce.)
- Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C).
- Dice onion and bell pepper.
- In a large skillet over medium heat, sauté onion and bell pepper for about 8 minutes.
- Meanwhile, dice tomatoes. Rinse and drain beans.
- When onions are translucent, reduce heat. Add cumin, paprika, tomatoes, nutritional yeast, hemp hearts, and both beans (rinsed and drained). Stir well. Heat for 4-5 minutes then set aside.
- In a lightly sprayed 9"×13" baking dish, cover the bottom with a thin layer of enchilada sauce.
- Distribute bean mixture in the center of tortillas. Roll up, tucking in both ends.
- Place all 6 rolled enchiladas in baking dish and top with remaining sauce.
- Bake for about 25 minutes.
- Serve topped with avocado, cilantro, additional hemp hearts, nutritional yeast, etc.
Notes
- *For gluten-free: Use GF all-purpose flour (I use Bob's Red Mill) and GF tortillas.
- Customizing: Add spinach, kale, chipotle, or garlic to the enchilada mixture.
- Make it cheesy: Add vegan cheese shreds to the bean mixture, or simply top with a layer of cheese during the last 10 minutes of bake time.
