Ingredients
- 1 tsp olive oil
- 7oz packaged unseasoned shredded jackfruit or canned jackfruit
- 1 tbsp chopped cilantro
- 1 garlic clove, crushed
- 1/4 tsp smoked paprika
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 2/3 cup canned black beans, rinsed and drained
- 6 corn and/or wheat tortillas of your choice (we used 45 calorie low carb whole wheat tortillas)
- 2/3 cup regular or vegan Mexican blend shredded cheese
- 1 can diced green chiles
- 1 1/4 cups store bought or Homemade Enchilada SauceÂ
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350F. Coat an 11x7x2-inch baking dish with cooking spray
- If using canned jackfruit, drain it and shred it. If using already shredded jackfruit, go to step 3
- To prepare the jackfruit, heat the olive oil in a large non stick skillet. Add the jackfruit, cilantro, garlic, smoked paprika and salt and cook over medium heat for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the black beans, 2 tablespoons of the enchilada sauce and continue cooking for 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat, mix well and set aside
- Spread 1/2 cup of enchilada sauce on the bottom of the baking dish. Spread 1 tsp of the enchilada sauce on each tortilla. Fill each tortilla with 2 heaping tablespoons of the jackfruit mixture and 2 tsp of the cheese. Â Roll them and place them seam side down on the baking dish. Â Spread the remaining enchilada sauce in the middle of the rolled tortillas, leaving the ends without sauce
- Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 30 minutes. Remove the aluminum foil, sprinkle the remaining cheese and add as much diced chiles as desired. Bake, uncovered, for another 5 minutes or until the cheese is melted. Serve warm
