Description

Mouthwatering Mushroom and Spinach Enchiladas filled with savory mushrooms and wilted spinach, topped with gooey cheese and enchilada sauce.


Ingredients

  • Olive Oil: Used for sautéing the mushrooms and spinach. You can also use vegetable oil or butter as a substitute.
  • Mushrooms: Fresh sliced mushrooms form the flavorful base of the filling. Cremini or button mushrooms are ideal for this recipe.
  • Fresh Spinach: Adds a nutritional boost and a fresh flavor. You can use baby spinach or regular spinach—just make sure to wash and chop it before using.
  • Tortillas: Corn or flour tortillas work best for enchiladas. Corn tortillas are gluten-free and traditional.
  • Enchilada Sauce: A punchy sauce that adds moisture and flavor. You can use store-bought or homemade enchilada sauce.
  • Shredded Cheese: A melty topping that makes these enchiladas irresistible. Use a blend of cheddar and mozzarella for a gooey finish.

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a baking dish with cooking spray.
  2. In a large skillet over medium heat, heat olive oil. Add the sliced mushrooms and sauté for about 5 minutes, or until soft.
  3. Add the fresh spinach and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until wilted. Remove the skillet from heat and set aside.
  4. In a separate bowl, mix the sautéed mushrooms and spinach with half of the cheese.
  5. Fill each tortilla with the mushroom and spinach mixture, roll them up tightly, and place them seam-side down in the prepared baking dish.
  6. Pour the enchilada sauce over the top of the rolled enchiladas, ensuring they are evenly covered.
  7. Sprinkle the remaining cheese on top of the sauce.
  8. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
  9. Let the enchiladas cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy!
