Vegan "Cheesy" Enchiladas

Ok, so this is a fave. When I say fave, I mean Chris effing loves this. I am Mexican and finding some Mexican vegan dishes have been a must. This is awesome and you can NOT tell that there is no cheese in it. I swear! I have made it with all different kinds of veggies. You can use store bought tortillas, Rico's tortillas or homemade. I will add a recipe for homemade vegan tortillas later.

This consists of two recipes. The Cheese Recipe and the Enchiladas. Here is the cheese recipe:

1/2 cup of flour
1/2 cup of nutritional yeast (found at Whole Foods)
1 tsp salt
1 tsp garlic powder
2 cups water
1/4 cup margarine
1 tsp mustard

In a large saucepan, combine the flour, nutritional yeast, salt and garlic powder. Whisk in the water and heat on medium until bubbling and thick. Remove from heat and add the margarine and mustard. Mix well and set aside.

Vegan Bean and Cheese Enchiladas

2 10 oz cans enchilada sauce
3 (14.5 oz) cans f black beans drained
2 tbsp canola or olive oil
2 med onions chopped
1/2 cup salsa
1/4 cup cilantro diced
10 tortillas
*I have also added 1 cup frozen corn and chopped red and green peppers

In a large skillet, add the onions and oil. You can also add any other veggies at this point that you want. Heat over skillet until the onion turns clear. Remove from heat and add the beans and cilantro. Add salsa and enchilada sauce to the cheese sauce you had set aside. Mix all of the sauces and set aside 1 cup of the sauce mixture.
You can put all of these in a large glass casserole dish one of two ways. There is the long way, which is placing a tortilla in the sauce then filling it with the veggie/bean mixture and pushing it to the end of the pan and repeating until all are filled OR the hungry mexican way which is this:

Cover the bottom of the pan lightly with the sauce then add one layer of tortillas. Add some of the veggie/bean mixture and cover with more sauce. Then Add another layer. Continue until the dish is full.

Once you have all of your enchiladas rolled or layered, take the cup of sauce you set aside and pour it over the top.

Bake at 350 degrees for 30 - 45 minutes. Salud!
