How to Make Veggie Enchiladas

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large skillet, melt 3 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil.
  3. Gently fry tortillas for about 5 seconds per side, until slightly softened. Remove and set aside on paper towels.
  4. In the same skillet, melt the remaining 3 tablespoons of butter. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.
  5. Stir in the diced zucchini, olives, minced garlic, black beans, green chilies, salt, and pepper. Sauté for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  6. Place approximately 1/2 cup of the vegetable mixture in the center of each tortilla.
  7. Top each tortilla with a heaping tablespoon of Monterey Jack cheese.
  8. Roll up tightly and place seam-side down in a greased 9x13 inch baking dish.
  9. Pour the enchilada sauce evenly over the rolled enchiladas.
  10. Sprinkle generously with shredded cheddar cheese.
  11. Bake uncovered for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the enchiladas are heated through.
  12. Let cool slightly before serving. Garnish with sour cream and chopped green onions.
