Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

  2. Combine refried beans, enchilada sauce, cocoa powder, and molasses in a saucepan over low heat, stirring occasionally, simmer until hot, about 5 minutes.

  3. Coat a large non-stick skillet with cooking spray and place over medium-high heat. Cook and stir broccoli, onion, red bell pepper, poblano pepper, and jalapeno pepper until just soft, 5 to 7 minutes. Season with salt and black pepper.

  4. Spread a thin layer of bean mixture to cover the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish.

  5. Sprinkle about 1/4 cup pepperjack cheese across the center of each tortilla and top with about 2/3 cup vegetable mixture. Fold in two small opposite sides of each tortilla and carefully roll the tortillas around the vegetable filling, arrange in a single layer with the seam-side down in the baking dish.

  6. Pour remaining bean mixture evenly over the filled tortillas in the baking dish and spread to cover evenly.

  7. Bake on the center rack of the preheated oven until sauce is bubbling, about 20 minutes. Sprinkle with Cheddar cheese and bake until cheese is melted, about 5 minutes.

Recipe Note

Delicious and filling veggie enchiladas inspired by my dad! His recipe used mole sauce, which I can't buy where I live, so I came up with a tasty alternative. Serve hot with Spanish rice and cilantro garnish.
