Vegan Sweet Potato & Black Bean Enchiladas with Avocado Crema

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

When I decided to pursue cooking full time, sweet potato and black bean enchiladas were one of the first recipes I produced! For myself I had never experienced sweet potatoes in a Mexican food concept and was intrigued by how the flavors would blend together. As I imagined, it blended seamlessly when coated with spices and had notes of lime and a hint of sweet! (It’s my secret to enhancing the flavor)

 

Let me first start by saying I never was an “enchilada” person even before my plant based days. They never looked appetizing and always appeared soggy to me lol. Who wants soggy tacos?! (ironically my husband loves them) However, you can gravitate away from the traditional enchiladas in your own kitchen and switch things up!

 

With a few modifications homemade enchiladas can be quite the flavorful dish, be nutrient packed, and not even put a dent in your pocket! Many may argue that these stray too far from the traditional enchiladas. If you prefer the traditional corn tortilla, smashing the filling, omitting the avocado cream you’re more than welcome to modify this dish!

What I love about this dish is, everything! It’s accessible, affordable, sweet, savory, nutrient dense, filling, effortless, enchilada sauce can be used for other dishes, can easily be made in bulk, perfect for any season, perf for entertaining, have aesthetic appeal, and the avocado crema can be used for other dishes!
