Or Meatless Monday for that matter. 😉
VEGETARIAN ENCHILADAS
Are one of my favorite ways to switch up Mexican food..
But one of my primary reasons for updating the recipe was these Soft Almond Flour Tortillas.
Well that and my love for Mexican food.
And since I haven't made these Vegetarian Enchiladas with my homemade wraps...
Plus since these wraps continue to be one of the most loved recipes ❤ here on the blog...
I just knew it had to happen... and boy oh boy I'm glad it did.
So let's just say they're now going to be a regular in our house AGAIN and hopefully yours.
Cause using homemade tortillas and enchilada sauce makes all the difference in the world.
Can I make Vegetarian Enchiladas using store brand wraps and enchilada sauce?
You certainly can make these enchiladas with store bought wraps & sauce but I highly recommend making your own.
The sauce and wraps can easily be made a day ahead or even the morning you plan on making these.
A lot of this recipe can be prepped ahead making it easy when you're ready to prepare.
Even chopping up the veggies prior to getting started... great prep idea...
Can I re-heat these vegetarian enchiladas
Yes.... they are great made ahead... and re-heated.
Once cooked, cooled and refrigerated make sure to cover em...
Just warm them in the oven prior to dinner at a low setting till heated all the way through.
What you'll need for homemade Enchilada sauce....
- tomato sauce
- cornstarch
- coconut oil
- chili powder
- vegetable broth
- onion powder
- garlic powder
And you can make this homemade sauce in only 10 minutes.
Quick & Easy Homemade Enchilada Sauce
