Instructions

For the Chili Cream Sauce

  • Mix all ingredients (other than water) in a bowl. Stir to blend and then add water as necessary to thin to desired consistency. Put aside.

For the Enchilada Filling

  • Heat olive-oil in a large-pan over moderate heat. Add onion and garlic cook till onion starts to soften for 3minutes, stirring regularly.
  • Add remaining ingredients aside from enchilada sauce. Then Break tofu apart with a wooden-spoon and stir often till spinach is wilted, the veggies have softened & everything is heated through. Taste and adjust seasoning as necessary.
  • Remove from heat & add enchilada-sauce. Stir to blend and put aside.

For the Enchiladas

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Then wrap tortillas in a moist paper-towel then steam in the microwave for a few seconds.
  • Cover the bottom of baking-dish with ½ a cup of enchilada-sauce. Fill each tortilla with ¼ of tofu-scramble filling & also drizzle of green-chili cream-sauce (there must be approximately 2-4 tbsp of cream-sauce leftover when you've filled each the enchiladas).
  • Roll tortilla up to include the filling. Put each stuffed tortilla seam side-down in the baking-dish.
  • Top with remaining enchilada-sauce & put in the oven for 10-20minutes or till heated through.
  • Remove from oven & drizzle remaining cream-sauce over the enchiladas. Top with cilantro and avocado slices. Serve and enjoy!
