Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.

  2. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and cook for 3-4 minutes until softened.

  3. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.

  4. Stir in the chopped spinach and cook until wilted, about 2-3 minutes.

  5. Add the corn kernels, black beans, ground cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper to the skillet. Stir to combine and cook for another 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat.

  6. Take a tortilla and spoon a generous amount of the spinach and corn mixture onto the center. Roll the tortilla tightly and place it seam-side down in the prepared baking dish. Repeat with the remaining tortillas.

  7. Pour the enchilada sauce over the rolled tortillas, making sure to coat them evenly.

  8. Sprinkle the shredded cheese over the top of the enchiladas.

  9. Cover the baking dish with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the enchiladas are heated through.

  10. Remove the foil and broil for an additional 2-3 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and slightly golden.

  11. Serve the Spinach and Corn Enchiladas hot, garnished with diced avocado, fresh cilantro, and a dollop of sour cream if desired.
