These scrumptious Vegetarian Mole Enchiladas are one of my favourite healthy Mexican dishes to make and are so easy! This special take on a Mexican classic takes mounds of vegetable goodness, wrapped in corn tortillas, drizzled in lashings of luxurious Mole Poblano sauce and baked in the oven until oozing and hot – the ultimate comfort dish!

What makes this dish extra special is the addition of my Mole Poblano Sauce. This decadent sauce has deep, rich notes of cocoa, smoky chillies, sweet currants and a slight buttery crunch from nuts. This unique sauce is very traditional to Mexico and can be used to add a hit of flavour to loads of different dishes. Whenever making up a batch, I always double, or even sometimes triple, the recipe and keep jars of it in the fridge and freezer on stand-by for dishes just like these Vegetarian Mole Enchiladas. Click Here to read more about this fantastic sauce and give the recipe a go. Once you’ve made up a batch, you can whip up these delicious parcels in no time.

This particular enchilada recipe is made vegetarian, however you can substitute with just about any filling you like – Add in your favourite veg, chicken, beef or pork.
