Recipe:, Vegetarian Enchiladas Options

[jordanriane]

This recipe I created on my own, simply from remembering how my grandma used to make her enchiladas. You can also add meat if you would like, but this recipe excludes it since it's primarily a vegetarian recipe (though some of the products used might contain certain ingrediants that a strict vegetarian might prohibit; You can always substitute!)

Makes 10 enchiladas (if using Pepito brand large flour tortillas.)

Ingrediants:
- 1 can of La Prefierda refried beans (frijoles)
- 1 pack of tortillas (Pepito/ 10 large flour tortillas
- 1 can of red or green echilada sauce, or chipotle sauce
- 1 box of spanish rice
- 1 can of corn
- 1 bag of taco cheese
- 1 to 3 ripe tomatoes
- 1 can of black olives

Directions:
1.) In a frying pan, cook the spanish rice; add in amount of corn to your liking. Do not cook all the way, leave them somewhat undercooked. Put in a bowl for later use.
2.) In same frying pan, cook the frijoles, either all the way or until they're slightly warm, it doesn't matter.
3.) Get a backing pan, and spray on non-stick spray.
4.) Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
5.) With a spatula, spread on a decent amount of beans onto all tortillas.
6.) Dice tomatos, and olives to desired size (keep them tiny!)
7.) Spread on desired amount of spanish rice, diced tomatos, and black olives. Add cheese on the inside, if desired.
8.) Wrap all tortillas so that nothing spills out of them. Just roll them up; place on baking pan.
9.) Pour the enchilada sauce over the tortillas; sprinkle a thin layer of cheese/black olives and tomatos over as well.
10.) Bake in over for 20 minutes.
11.) Add more cheese to enchiladas once they are removed from the oven.

(I also made a spicey salsa that I added to the inside of a few of the enchiladas; I'll have to find the exact products i used so I can put up the recipe; I didn't make it entirely from scratch.)

Normally for enchiladas, you can use steak or chicken, but this was my "vegetarian" version, using mainly rice and frijoles. Some of the products I listed aren't really those you'd use if you're a strict vegan or vegetarian, but you can always substitute the items for what you'd want.
