If you have time, it’s absolutely worth making our Homemade Enchilada Sauce. Turns out, it takes just a handful of ingredients to get huge flavor. This full-bodied sauce is zingy, zesty, and you’ll never want to stop eating it. Here are a few notes on incorporating this sauce into these vegan enchiladas:
Assembling these vegan enchiladas is the hardest part. How to make sure you have the right amount of filling so it doesn’t spill out? How to make sure the tortillas don’t split? Here are our tips:
Corn tortillas are more traditional in Mexican-style enchiladas. Flour tortillas are more traditional in American style enchiladas. There are pros and cons to both! When we tested this vegan enchiladas recipe, we had a lot of issues with corn tortillas that split open when we went to roll them. Here are some pros and cons to each:
Our homemade guacamole recipe is so good, it’s worth making if you have time! But since storebought guacamole is so easily available, we’d recommend getting your favorite purchased brand to speed up prep time for the recipe. It takes about 15 minutes to make the guacamole. If you’re making of the components at home, we’d recommend the enchilada sauce instead.
But if you do have time, it’s worth making this incredible homemade guacamole, and you can use the extras as a side dish. You could also make it ahead and store it using this storage tip so it doesn’t brown: refrigerate it with 1/2″ of water on top of the guac. This serves as a barrier to the air and works like a charm!
These enchiladas are a stunning vegan dish that’s perfect for dinner parties or weeknight meals. What to serve with these vegan enchiladas to make it a full meal? We’ve got lots of options. Here are our favorite sides to serve with enchiladas:
Vegetarian, vegan, plant-based, dairy-free, and gluten-free (with corn tortillas).

Skillet enchiladas for the win today.
There is no shortage of enchiladas here on the blog, but let’s just add another to the mix. Why not? I get bored with everything after I make it a few times anyway, so let’s go.
This is such an easy, perfect weeknight meal. Use some leftover chicken (or a rotisserie!) and make your own sauce so the flavorful is out of this world. It will come together quickly and the leftovers are DELISH.
I’m declaring that these skillet enchiladas are technically easier than my traditional ones because we lose a step and a dish! Which makes it only slightly simpler to put together but for some reason, it FEELS much easier. You know?
I mean, anytime I have less dishes in my life is a good time. If you even knew how many dishes I wash in this house. It is absolutely insane.
I always make my enchilada sauce in a skillet or saucepan and this time, I got lazy and decided to just add my enchiladas right to that same skillet. But like, actual rolled up enchiladas – not just layered tortillas. Instead of scooping out of the sauce and placing it in a baking dish with the enchiladas and then pouring the rest over top…
NOPE! Everything is going directly into the skillet. Boom.
P.S. if you want a throw-it-all-together skillet dinner, I made one here a few years ago.
Our kicker ingredient here is chipotle peppers in adobo sauce. We’re mostly adding the adobo sauce to our enchilada sauce and it will give it the perfect spicy flavor. I like to then add a touch of the enchilada sauce to the chicken mixture before rolling it in the tortillas.
That alone is delicious enough to scoop up with tortilla chips. Wish I was eating it right now.
This cheesy goodness is everything!
I’ve said it a million times but enchiladas have a little special place in my heart because they was one of the first meals I ever cooked for Eddie, waaaay before I REALLY knew how to cook. Since then, my enchiladas have become even more flavorful since nearly everything is homemade and they are just.so.good.
So, dinner tonight!!
Chipotle chicken skillet enchiladas are loaded with flavor and come together so quickly! They are the perfect spicy weeknight meal.
All those flavors bits on the side!! YES.
