Homemade Vegan Enchiladas
Equipment
- Oven
- Saucepan
- Sauteing Pan
- Griddle (Comal)
- Medium to Large Baking Dish
Ingredients
- 16 Tortillas
- 3 Cups Homemade Enchilada Sauce
- 3 Cups Vegan Ground Meat
- 8-12 Ounces Grated Cheddar Cheese Cheesy Goodness
- 3 Tablespoons Neutral Oil Optional
Instructions
- Prepare your Homemade Enchilada Sauce and turn on your oven at 375 F
- Place 1/2 cup of enchilada sauce in your Vegan Ground Meat and warm in a sauteing pan. Be careful that it is not to hot because that is not necessary since we are placing these enchiladas in the oven.
- You will need to heat your tortillas in the microwave or a griddle so they are able to be folded into flute like tacos. This option will work if you are following an oil free lifestyle.
- If you are using oil on your tortillas place 2 to 3 tablespoons of neutral oil on a plate and gently smother some oil on the tortillas so that they are coated. 2 to 3 tablespoons should coat all 16 tortillas so that you are not using to much oil
- Proceed to heat your tortillas on a griddle also known as "comal" in spanish until they are able to be folded.
- Place your Vegan Ground Meat on the tortilla on one side so that it is easier to fold.
- Your tortillas with the filling should now look like an edible flute. Place your tortilla flutes in your baking dish to where there isn't any room for them to move around. This will keep them from breaking apart.
- I used sliced cheese because I had a lot in my fridge but you can use shredded cheese if you prefer. Who am I kidding we will use all the cheese we can right.
- After you layer your tortilla flutes and the cheese pour the Homemade Enchilada Sauce making sure to cover all surfaces of the enchiladas and bake at 375 F for 30 minutes.
- Leave your oven on and take your Enchiladas out so you can shred some cheese on them and place back in the oven to Broil for 5 to 10 minutes depending on your preference.
- Your enchiladas are ready to enjoy. Top them with sour cream, avocado, jalapenos or cilantro and enjoy.
- Serve your enchiladas on their own or with rice and refried pinto beans.
