Time 1h30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 13

8 (5 inch) corn tortillas
½ unpeeled butternut squash, seeded
½ cup water
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 clove garlic, minced
¼ onion, chopped
2 cups chopped fresh spinach
4 sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
1 cup enchilada sauce
¼ cup crumbled goat cheese
¼ cup crumbled cotija cheese
2 tablespoons chopped cilantro leaves, for garnish
¼ cup sour cream, for topping

Steps:

  • Preheat an oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Lay the tortillas flat onto a baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven until crispy, about 10 minutes. Remove and allow to cool. Meanwhile, place the butternut squash half into a microwave-safe dish cut-side-down, and pour in the water. Cook in the microwave until tender, 12 to 15 minutes. Once cool enough to handle, scoop out the flesh and dice; place into a mixing bowl and set aside.
  • Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in the garlic and onion; cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the spinach and sun-dried tomatoes. Continue cooking until the spinach wilts. Gently fold the spinach mixture into the diced butternut squash.
  • Arrange four crispy tortillas on the baking sheet. Divide the squash mixture among the tortillas. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of goat cheese over each tortilla, then top with the remaining tortillas. Pour the enchilada sauce over top, and sprinkle each with 1 tablespoon of cotija cheese.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until hot, about 10 minutes. Garnish each enchilada with chopped cilantro leaves and a dollop of sour cream to serve.

1 butternut squash - peeled, halved lengthwise, and seeded
3 tablespoons vegetable oil

1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground coriander
2 pinches cayenne pepper
2 (15.5 ounce) cans black beans, rinsed and drained
12 ounces shredded Cheddar cheese, divided
2 (10 ounce) cans mild enchilada sauce
