Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 19

1 tablespoon olive oil or 1/4 cup water
1 medium onion (any color), diced
3 - 4 cloves garlic, minced
1 large green bell pepper, diced
1 1/2 cups long grain white rice (see notes for brown rice)
1 3/4 cups low-sodium vegetable broth (or water)
1 can (14oz) black beans, drained and rinsed
1 can (14oz) corn, drained
1 can (14oz) fire roasted diced tomatoes, with juices
1 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon chili powder or smoked paprika
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1 1/2 cups enchilada sauce (green, red, salsa verde or combo)
salt, to taste
sliced or diced avocado
fresh chopped cilantro
shredded vegan cheese
tortilla chips
Pico de Gallo

Steps:

  • Add the oil/water, onion, bell pepper, and garlic to the insert of the Instant Pot, press the SAUTE button, and set the time for 5 minutes, stir frequently.
  • Add the rice, water, spices, tomatoes, corn, black beans, and finish with the enchilada sauce. Attach lid and turn to close, set valve to SEALING, and manually set to HIGH pressure for 5 minutes. Release pressure when done (to help keep the steam from getting all over, place a thin, single-layer kitchen towel over the valve to catch the steam).
  • Remove lid and give a good stir. It will seem liquidy but will thicken after a few minutes. Add the cilantro and season to taste.
  • Cook 1 1/2 cups of rice according to package directions. Set aside.
  • Heat oil/water in a medium-sized pot, add the onion, bell pepper, and garlic, saute for 5 minutes.
  • Add the cooked rice, corn, tomatoes, black beans, spices, and enchilada sauce, cook over medium-low heat for 10 minutes, or until heated through.
  • Remove from heat, let rest to thicken up, about 5 - 10 minutes. Add the cilantro and season to taste.

Roll the enchiladas and place it seam side down in the baking dish.
