Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Filling

    In a large skillet over medium heat, heat the olive oil. Add the chopped onions, garlic, and red bell pepper, sautéing until soft, about 5 minutes. Stir in the zucchini and corn, cooking for another 5-7 minutes until the zucchini is tender. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  2. 2

    Assemble the Enchiladas

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Take a tortilla, add a generous amount of the vegetable filling, and roll it up tightly. Place the rolled tortilla seam-side down in a baking dish. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.

  3. 3

    Add Sauce and Cheese

    Pour the green enchilada sauce evenly over the assembled enchiladas. Sprinkle the shredded cheese on top.

  4. 4

    Bake

    Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake for 20 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Remove from the oven, let cool for a few minutes, then garnish with chopped cilantro before serving.
