Ingredients
- 3 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and diced
- ⅓ cup veggie broth, or more if needed
- 2 teaspoons of garlic powder
- 8 ounces of mushrooms
- 1 can of diced green chilies
- 10 corn tortillas
- Vegan enchilada sauce
- paprika
- salt
Instructions
- Cook sweet potatoes in a saute pan and use veggie broth to cook instead of oil. Add garlic powder while cooking.
- Cook until soft then whip with a hand blender or smash up with a fork.
- Chop and heat mushrooms until they release their liquids and most of it has evaporated. Then add 2 tablespoons of chilies (or more depending on your taste).
- Heat tortillas on open flame if you have a gas stove or just heat them so they are flexible enough to roll.
- Spread some sweet potatoes and mushrooms/chilies in each tortilla and roll.
- Pour sauce over the top of rolled enchiladas and bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes.
- Add a little more sauce and CHOW DOWN!

Notes
- To save time: Use pre-chopped or even pre-cooked sweet potato.
- Bake seam side down: To ensure they don’t unravel while cooking.
- To avoid soggy enchiladas: Frying the tortillas in a little oil when heating them will create a barrier so the sauce doesn’t soak in as easily.
- To avoid dry enchilada: Spread a layer of sauce beneath the tortillas and optionally over the entire tortilla (inside and out) with sauce. You could also cover the enchiladas with parchment paper while baking.
