Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a baking dish with cooking spray and set aside.
-
In a large skillet, sauté the diced onion and minced garlic in a bit of olive oil over medium heat until the onion is soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.
-
Add the fresh spinach to the skillet and cook until wilted, stirring occasionally, for about 2-3 minutes.
-
Stir in the black beans, corn kernels, ground cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper, combining all the ingredients well. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to heat through.
-
Remove the skillet from the heat and gently fold in the sliced avocado to avoid smashing it too much.
-
Warm the tortillas in the microwave for a few seconds, or wrap them in foil and place in the preheated oven for a couple of minutes to make them pliable.
-
Spoon a generous portion of the vegetable mixture onto each tortilla, sprinkle with a generous amount of cheese, and roll up tightly. Place seam-side down in the prepared baking dish.
-
Pour the red enchilada sauce over the rolled tortillas, making sure they are all evenly coated.
-
Sprinkle any remaining cheese over the top of the enchiladas, cover the baking dish with foil, and bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes.
-
Remove the foil and bake for an additional 5-10 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and slightly browned.
-
Garnish with chopped fresh cilantro before serving.
