  • 2 ripe avocados
  • 1/2 lime, juiced
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 3 tbsp water

  • 1/4 tsp salt

Instructions 

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
  • In a skillet, over medium heat, add 1 tbsp of olive oil.
  • And the chopped peppers and onions to the pan once oil is hot and saute for about 5-6 minutes, until soft.
  • Add in the corn, spices (cumin, garlic powder, paprika, salt), water, and kale. Saute for about 4 minutes until the kale is wilted.
  • Turn off the stove and add in the black beans (make sure to rinse and drain them) and ¼ cup of enchilada sauce into the pan and mix everything together.
  • Add 1 cup of enchilada sauce to the base of the 9x13 pan (or one approximately that size).
  • In a damp paper towel, heat up 6 tortillas for 30 seconds in the microwave to soften them.
  • Place one side of a tortilla in the sauce until it is fully covered, then flip over the tortilla to cover the other side in sauce and add in ⅓ of the veggie mixture from the pan in the middle of the tortilla and bring both sides to the middle for a fold. Flip the tortilla over so the open side is on the bottom and move the tortilla all the way to one end of the pan. Continue with all 6 tortillas.
  • Add any extra enchilada sauce across all the tortillas down the center.
  • Cook the enchiladas in the oven for 15-18 minutes, until they are a light golden color.
  • While the enchiladas cook, make your avocado crema by putting all of the ingredients into a food processor and blend until smooth.
  • Remove the enchiladas from the oven, top with avocado crema + ENJOY!
