Vegan Enchiladas

August 3, 2015 By reciperighter@gmail.com Leave a Comment

These Vegan Enchiladas are seriously so good. If you make them and feed them to anyone they won’t even know they are vegan. Plus they are so easy to make!

Vegan Enchiladas, Recipe Righter

This recipe happened when I was cleaning out the pantry to make my grocery list. I needed to use some sweet potatoes that had been hanging out on the counter for a while. I had some left over Trader Joe’s vegan cheese that I was tying out. I found a jar of enchilada sauce I bought a while ago and also had some assorted tortillas left over that needed to be used up; some whole wheat and some habanero lime. The rest of the ingredients are  pantry staples. It just came together so perfectly and will absolutely be made again very soon!

The sweet potato is a really nice base in the mixture because the other ingredients kind of stick to it and the mixture becomes moldable and stays in the tortillas really nicely while baking and while eating. If there weren’t potatoes I think the mixture would just spill out. Plus the flavor is really great too!

If you follow me on Instagram @KristinBellRD you know I love to make meal preps. These are PERFECT for meal preps. They fit perfectly into meal prep containers. The left overs were put right into containers.
