Instructions

  1. Have extra hand towels or paper towels nearby for wiping hands.
  2. Enchiladas are easy to assemble but, first I wash and julienne or shred the zucchini then chop the onion and garlic
  3. Then saute all three with a little olive oil and pepper 1/4 tsp.Set to side in a bowl.
  4. Next I warm up the enchilada sauce in a pan.
  5. Put your veggies and all the ingredients in a place where you can assembly line fill, roll and place them in a baking dish or store bought 11 x 13 pan.
  6. Put your Kraft® Shredded Cheese in a bowl it makes it easier to grab to put into the tortillas
  7. Heat the tortillas in the microwave by setting them on a plate, wrapping them in a damp paper towel for about 45 seconds to 1.50 seconds. You need them soft and pliable to roll the tortilla.
  8. Add some warm sauce to the bottom of the baking dish.
  9. Dip your tortilla in the pan of green sauce, then fill and roll your tortillas one by one. Place them side by side in the dish until full. Cover with some warm sauce and Kraft® Shredded Cheese and green chilies.
  10. When your pan is ready cover and put into the fridge until ready to bake.Give yourself at least an hour prior to serving to heat and plate.
  11. Pull out of the fridge at that time and Bake at 375 degrees F 30-45 minutes or until heated throughout
  12. Garnish with Sour Cream and Salsa or Softened Cream Cheese, Black Olives and Cilantro if you like! We usually set it up like an enchilada bar with all the toppings & side dishes.
