Vegetarian Black Bean, Corn and Zucchini Enchiladas image

My friend Stephanie gave me this recipe and she got it out of a magazine, but I don't know which one! My kids actually like this so much that they fight over who gets to eat the leftovers!! It's so easy to make too. I'm sure you can use canned enchilada sauce, but if you do make the sauce in this recipe, it sure is tasty!
