Ingredients

  • 10 corn tortillas

Filling:

  • 1 can chickpeas, mashed
  • 1 portobello mushroom, diced
  • 1/2 cup white onion, diced
  • 1/2 cup vegetable broth
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1-2 tsp chili powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste

OR

Sauce:
  • 5 tomatillos, peeled
  • 1 poblano pepper
  • 1 jalapeño or serrano pepper
  • 1/2 block silken tofu
  • 3 garlic cloves
  • 2 tsp No Chicken Better than Bouillon*
  • 1 tbsp nutritional yeast
  • 1 cup water
  • Salt to taste

Toppings:


Instructions

  1. Turn a griddle on medium-high heat and roast tomatillos, poblano, and jalapeño pepper until charred on all sides.*
  2. While peppers are roasting, prep filling. Open can of chickpeas, drain, and rinse well. Turn a pan on medium heat and add a splash of vegetable broth. Add diced onions and cook until translucent.
  3. Add chickpeas and the rest of the vegetable broth. Mash chickpeas with the back of the spatula/spoon. They don’t need to be mashed perfectly, leave some texture. Simmer for 5 minutes.
  4. Add diced portobello, cumin, chili powder, salt, and cook for an additional 7-10 minutes then set aside.
  5. Once tomatillos and peppers are roasted and well cooked, add to a blender along with silken tofu, garlic, better than bouillon, water, and salt. Blend until smooth.
  6. Heat tortillas before rolling enchiladas to avoid them breaking. Once tortillas they are warm and soft, add the filling, roll them up and place in a baking dish. Repeat until you have about 10.
  7. Pour half of the sauce over the enchiladas and use a brush to spread out the sauce and cover most of the tortillas.
  8. Bake at 375 for 10-15 minutes. Take out of the oven and let cool off for 10-15 minutes. Add the rest of the sauce on top or individually when serving. Top off with avocado, cilantro, sour cream, and shredded lettuce.
