Ingredients

8 servings
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons ground cumin
  • ¼ cup all purpose flour
  • ¼ cup tomato paste
  • One 14.5-ounce can vegetable broth
  • ¾ cup water
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, (to taste)
  • 3 cups grated Monterey Jack cheese ((or Jack/Cheddar blend), divided)
  • One 15-ounce can black beans, (rinsed and drained)
  • One 10-ounce box frozen chopped spinach, (thawed and squeezed dry)
  • 1 cup corn ((canned, frozen or fresh))
  • 4 medium green onions, (thinly sliced (white and green parts separated))
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • Sixteen 6-inch corn tortillas ((Guerrero brand is much preferred since they do not fall apart!))
  • optional toppings: sour cream, avocado/guacamole, sliced olives, chopped tomato

Steps

  1. In a medium saucepan, heat the oil over medium heat. Add 2 teaspoons cumin, flour and tomato paste. Cook, whisking constantly, for 1 minute. Slowly whisk in the broth and water; bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer until slightly thickened (5 to 7 minutes). Season with salt and pepper to taste, and then set aside.

  2. In a large bowl, combine 2 cups of the cheese, beans, spinach, corn, green onions (white parts) and cumin. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.

  3. Preheat the oven to 400℉. Spray one 10x14 inch pyrex pan with nonstick spray (or two 8x8 inch pans).

  4. Wrap 4 tortillas in a damp paper towel and microwave for 20 seconds. Lay a tortillas on a flat work surface and pile about ⅓ cup of the filling down the middle. Roll the tortilla tightly around the filling and place it seam-side-down in the prepared pan. Repeat with remaining tortillas (microwaving 4 at a time) and filling until you've used it all up.

  5. Drizzle the sauce on top, and sprinkle with the remaining 1 cup of cheese. Bake, uncovered, until hot and bubbly, 20 to 25 minutes. Sprinkle with chopped green scallions and serve with desired toppings.
