Ingredients
- 1 yellow onion small
- 2 zucchini medium
- 2 tomato large
- 2 red bell pepper or 1 fresh bell pepper, fire-roasted
- 1 cup corn frozen, canned, fire-roasted, etc, sweet, cooked
- 15 oz. White beans I use cannellini, canned
- 2 cups spinach fresh baby
- 2 tsp. cumin ground

- 8 tortilla large
- 16 oz. salsa verde I use mild, tomatillo salsa
- vegan shredded cheese nutritional yeast, optional
Toppings (optional):
- cilantro fresh
- green onion

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C).
- Dice onion, zucchini, tomatoes (excess juice removed), and roasted bell peppers.
- In a large skillet over medium-high heat, sauté onion for 5-6 minutes. (I use 3 Tbsp. water/broth for no-oil sauté method, adding more liquid as needed.)
- Add cumin and garlic powder. Sauté 1 minute.
- Add zucchini, tomato, pepper, and corn. Stir and sauté 6 minutes, or until zucchini is tender.
- Rinse and drain white beans. Add to skillet.
- Roughly chop spinach and add to skillet. Stir and cook for 2 minutes. Salt/pepper mixture to taste if desired. Turn off stove.
- Distribute the bean mixture evenly down the center of each tortilla. Top with a sprinkle of vegan shredded cheese or nutritional yeast (optional). Then roll up tightly, tucking in both ends.
- Place enchiladas seam side down in a 9"×13" pan. Evenly coat the top with salsa verde.
- Place in oven and bake for 25 minutes.
Notes
- *Tortillas: I use large burrito-sized tortillas. (This is made gluten-free with your favorite GF tortillas.)
- Corn tortilla option: These are a great GF/oil-free option as well. You’ll need about 12-16 corn tortillas. However, you may want to turn it into an enchilada casserole and layer/stack the filling and tortillas for easier assembly.
