Spinach Enchiladas are loaded with spinach and cheese, and topped with a green enchilada sauce. They are my favorite entrée at a local Mexican restaurant.

Provided by Emily Walker

Categories     Dinner     Main Course

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 18

8 flour tortillas (I like to use the uncooked tortillas from Costco, no need to pre-cook, they cook up as they bake)
1 bag fresh spinach (don't use the frozen)
1 brick Monterrey Jack cheese (shredded)
sour cream
2 avocados (sliced (just before serving))
2 tomatoes (diced)
1 cup chicken broth
5 medium tomatillos (husked and rinsed)
7 oz diced green chilis (undrained)
3 Tbsp yellow onion
1 green onion
1 clove garlic
3 Tbsp cilantro
1/2 Poblano pepper
1/2 lime (juiced)
2 tsp sugar
1/2 tsp cumin
Salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Combine all ingredients in a blender, blend for a minute or two until everything is very well blended. Pour sauce into a medium saucepan and bring just to a boil over medium high heat. Reduce heat and simmer 20 minutes, until sauce thickens.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Layer the bottom of a 9x13 pan with about 1/2 c. of the green enchilada sauce.
  • Roll each tortilla with 1/2 cup fresh spinach and 1/3 cup shredded cheese then place each one, fold side down, into the pan. Top with remaining enchilada sauce and sprinkle with more shredded cheese, to taste.
  • Bake in preheated oven for 15 to 20 minutes until cheese is bubbling and enchiladas are heated through. Serve topped with sour cream, sliced avocados, and diced tomatoes.

SPINACH ENCHILADAS VERDE

This is super simple, and even hard-core Texan meat eaters who have never eaten a vegetable in their lives like it. You can substitute yogurt for the sour cream if you want a lighter version.

Time 35m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 cup light sour cream
1 (7 ounce) can green salsa
1 bunch fresh spinach, rinsed and thinly sliced
2 cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese
1 (10 ounce) package corn tortillas

Roll up, secure with a toothpick and place into the baking dish. When all of the tortillas are in the pan, pour the remaining salsa over the top and sprinkle with the remaining cheese.

I've been making this recipe on an off for years. First found it on the back of a tortilla packet. I've tweaked it a few times now.

SPINACH AND CHEESE ENCHILADAS



Spinach and Cheese Enchiladas image

From the accolades I got, I really should have spent hours in the kitchen, but this little recipe was embarrassingly easy. Use thawed frozen spinach in lieu of the fresh to save money and time and use whatever jarred salsa you happen to have. I used store brand roasted chipotle to great effect.

Provided by HopeJohnJP

Categories     Spinach

Time 30m

Yield 10 enchiladas, 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 tablespoon olive oil
2 teaspoons minced garlic cloves
1 (11 ounce) bag baby spinach leaves, fresh
4 ounces cheddar cheese, shredded
4 ounces monterey jack cheese, shredded
2 cups ricotta cheese
16 ounces salsa (about 2 cups)
salt and pepper
10 flour tortillas

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375°. Spray an 11 x 13 covered casserole dish with cooking spray and set aside.
  • Heat oil in a wide, deep skillet and sauté the garlic until golden, about 1 minute. Add spinach and cook, stirring occasionally, until nicely wilted. Turn off heat.
  • Transfer cooked spinach to a colander and allow to drain, or, once slightly cooled, to a salad spinner. Discard liquid and return spinach to pan.
  • Add cheeses, stirring well. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Using a spoon or your hands, shape about 1/4 - 1/2 cups of filling into the shape of a sausage and lay it across the midline of a tortilla. Roll the tortilla closed and place it seam side down into the casserole dish. Repeat with remaining filling and tortillas. May be made in advance and refrigerated, covered, until serving time.
  • Pour salsa over, and bake, covered, for 15 - 20 minutes (allow more if refrigerated) until hot through. Serve with a crisp salad and a cold beer.

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium high heat. Add the onion and cook until softened, about 3-4 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for an additional 2 minutes. Add the spinach leaves and cook until they are wilted and shrinks down. Stir in the lime juice, cilantro, green chiles, cumin, and chile powder. Remove from heat and stir in the sour cream. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
  • To assemble, spread about 1/2 can of enchilada sauce in the bottom of a 9 x 13 baking dish. Fill each tortilla with about 1/3 cup of the spinach mixture. In a medium bowl, combine both kinds of shredded cheese. Sprinkle cheese over spinach mixture, about 3 tablespoons per enchilada. Roll up and place seam side down in the baking dish. When all enchiladas have been rolled and placed in the pan, top with the other 1/2 can of enchilada sauce and about 1/2 of the other can. We had some sauce leftover. Sprinkle remaining shredded cheese on top of enchiladas. Bake 20-30 minutes or until the cheese is melted, and the sauce is bubbling around the edges.
  • Note-these enchiladas freeze well. Cool completely, without toppings, and place in a tupperware container. Reheat individual servings in the microwave when ready to eat! You can also freeze an entire pan and reheat in the oven!
