Ingredients

  • 2 cup chopped carrots

  • 1 ½ cup chopped onions

  • 4 cloves garlic, minced

  • 2 tablespoon vegetable oil

  • 1 15 ounce can black beans, rinsed and drained

  • 1 cup fresh or frozen corn kernels

  • 1 cup frozen shelled edamame

  • 1 4 ounce can diced green chilies, drained

  • 1 ½ cup shredded Mexican-style four cheese blend (6 oz,)

  • Sour cream (optional)

  • Sliced avocado

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F. In an extra-large skillet cook carrots, onions, and garlic in hot oil over medium 5 to 6 minutes or until tender. Stir in beans, corn, edamame, and chiles. Cook and stir 2 minutes more.

  2. Spoon about 1/2 cup of the enchilada sauce in the bottom of a 3-qt. rectangular baking dish. Top with one-third of the vegetable mixture; one-third of the tortillas, overlapping and tearing to fit as necessary; 1/2 cup of the cheese; and one-third of the remaining enchilada sauce. Repeat layers twice.

  3. Bake, uncovered, about 25 minutes or until heated through. Let stand 10 minutes. Top with sour cream, if desired, avocado, and chopped fresh cilantro.
