Notes
- If you like your enchiladas really spicy, then feel free to add an extra teaspoon of chilli powder to the sauce mix, or you could stir a spoon of chipotle paste in to the sauce whilst it is cooking. American chilli powder is a lot milder than what we get here in the UK, so bear that in mind.
- Add a pinch of cinnamon to the sauce for an extra punch of flavour.
- Why not intensify the veggie flavour by roasting all your vegetables first.
- Make sure that your tortillas are warmed, otherwise they can crack when you roll them.
- We used cheddar on top of ours, but you could use a mixture of grated cheeses that melt well.
- You could swap the black beans for pinto beans or even chickpeas.
- Make these vegan by using your favourite vegan cheese substitute that melts well.
