SPINACH AND MUSHROOM ENCHILADAS WITH CILANTRO CREAM SAUCE
I LOVE these spinach enchiladas. They are just like the ones served at one of my fave restaurants! If you like spinach, you will love these. If you don't like spinach- you will probably find that this recipe changes your mind. (Altered recipe after reviews regarding the saltiness and amount of sauce. I have not had that problem, but do not want anyone to have a bad result. Please do try this and enjoy it.)

Steps:
- Filling: Heat butter in a large skillet over medium heat and saute onions, garlic and mushrooms until soft and liquid has evaporated, about 5 to 7 minutes.
- Remove half of the mushroom mixture and set aside, reserving for the sauce.
- Add wine and cook for 2 minutes more.
- Add spinach and cook until spinach is wilted and liquid has evaporated. Taste and add salt or season salt to taste IF NEEDED.
- Sauce: In a small sauce pan combine water, wine/juice, seasoned salt, chicken bouillon and garlic powder. Stir to dissolve before adding reserved mushroom mixture, sour cream and cilantro. Reduce heat to simmer until sauce just begins to thicken.
- Preheat oven to 350°F
- Wrap tortillas in paper towels and heat in microwave for a minute or so just to soften them.
- Divide filling evenly among the warm tortillas, fill and roll and place them seam side down in a greased 9x13 pan.
- Pour sauce over enchiladas, top with shredded cheese and bake 10-15 minutes- just until cheese is melted- browned if you like- and the entire dish has heated through.
VEGETARIAN SPINACH AND MUSHROOM ENCHILADAS
Delicious meatless enchiladas. You can vary the amounts of cheese and cream sauce to make them as light or heavy as you like. I use 3 to 5 varieties of mushrooms. Various oyster varieties, buttons, and baby portobello.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
- Heat a skillet over high heat. Add butter, mushrooms, and onion and cook until onions are translucent, 7 to 10 minutes. Add spinach and toss until wilted, about 3 minutes more. Season with salt and pepper. Remove from heat and set aside.
- Heat a small saucepan over medium heat. Add diced tomatoes, neufchatel cheese, 8 ounces sour cream, and cumin. Stir until thoroughly mixed, about 1 minute, and remove from heat.
- Place tortillas between 2 paper towels and heat in a microwave oven until warm, 30 seconds to 1 minute.

SPINACH AND MUSHROOM ENCHILADAS
Steps:
- For the sauce: Combine all of the sauce ingredients in a saucepan. Bring to a simmer and cook until all of the vegetables are tender, about 15 minutes. If desired, you can puree with an immersion blender or an immersion blender for a smooth consistency. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Thin with water, if necessary. While the sauce is simmering, make the filling.
- For the filling: Heat a 12-inch nonstick saute pan over medium heat. Add the onions and garlic and cook until the onions are translucent, about 4 minutes. Add the mushrooms and cook until they have released most of their liquid, about 6 minutes. Add a few tablespoons of water if the mushrooms get too dry. Add the spinach and cook until it is heated through. Combine the milk and the cornstarch to make a slurry. Add the milk mixture and bring to a simmer. Once the mixture comes to a simmer, the cornstarch will thicken the liquid. Cook for 1 minute. Add the cumin, chipotle, and lime juice and mix well. Remove from the heat and season, to taste, with salt and pepper. Cool slightly.
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- Wrap the tortillas in a wet paper towel and microwave for 15 seconds to heat. Ladle 1/2 of the sauce into the bottom of a baking dish. Place a few tablespoons of the filling on each tortilla and roll into a cylinder. Place, seam side down in the dish. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling. Top with the remaining sauce and the cheese. Bake, uncovered, until heated through and bubbly, about 25 to 30 minutes.

SPINACH AND MUSHROOM ENCHILADAS
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 11 3/4 x 7 1/2 x 1 3/4 inch glass pyrex with spray olive oil to coat completely and set aside. Thaw the frozen spinach and squeeze out as much of the water as possible. In a non-stick frying pan heat the olive oil on medium heat until hot but not smoking. Add the mushrooms and saute until all the liquid is released and evaporates. Add the chopped onions to the pan with the mushrooms and saute until the onions are translucent. Season with salt. Combine the mushrooms and onions with the drained and squeezed spinach. Mix in the cream cheese and combine thoroughly. Cover the bottom of the pyrex dish with half of the salsa. Spread about 3 tablespoons of the mixture on each tortilla spreading to cover most of the tortilla. Roll up and place seam down in the pyrex dish. Continue spreading and rolling the tortillas until all have been used. Cover the enchiladas with the remaining salsa. Spread the sharp cheddar cheese over all the enchiladas. Dot with halved olives. Bake uncovered in a 350 degree F. oven for 35 to 40 minutes or until heated through and cheese is melted. Serve immediately.
