These Veggie Enchiladas are perfect for meatless Mondays!
The inspiration came from my Black Bean Salsa. It’s so good I figured why not use it as a filling to enchiladas?
They turned out delicious!
Enchiladas are usually made with corn tortillas but to keep them low in points I used Ole Xtreme high fiber tortillas.

How to make Veggie Enchiladas:
To a medium bowl add the black beans, corn, cilantro, red pepper, red onion, lime juice, cumin, chili powder and salt. Mix it all together.
Spray a casserole dish with nonstick spray.
Layout a tortilla and add a heaping 1/4 cup of the black bean mixture to the center. Roll the shell up and add it to the dish seam side down.
Repeat with the remaining ingredients until you have 6 enchiladas.
I bought red enchilada sauce, but you could also use homemade enchilada sauce. Pour 1 cup of sauce over the enchiladas.
Finally, you want to top it with cheese. I used reduced-fat Mexican cheese to help keep it low in points.
Bake the enchiladas for 20-25 minutes or until the cheese is melted.
Top the enchiladas with your favorite ingredients. I like to use sour cream and green onion.
