Ingredients

  • 5-inch corn tortillas ()
  • 0.3 cup cotija cheese crumbled
  • cup enchilada sauce 
  • clove garlic minced
  • 0.3 cup goat cheese crumbled
  • tablespoons olive oil 
  • 0.3  onion chopped
  • cups pkt spinach fresh chopped
  •  sun-dried tomatoes chopped
  • 0.5 cup water 

Equipment

  • frying pan
  • baking sheet
  • oven
  • mixing bowl
  • microwave

Directions

  1. Preheat an oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  2. Lay the tortillas flat onto a baking sheet.
  3. Bake in the preheated oven until crispy, about 10 minutes.
  4. Remove and allow to cool. Meanwhile, place the butternut squash half into a microwave-safe dish cut-side-down, and pour in the water. Cook in the microwave until tender, 12 to 15 minutes. Once cool enough to handle, scoop out the flesh and dice; place into a mixing bowl and set aside.
  5. Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in the garlic and onion; cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes.
  6. Add the spinach and sun-dried tomatoes. Continue cooking until the spinach wilts. Gently fold the spinach mixture into the diced butternut squash.
  7. Arrange four crispy tortillas on the baking sheet. Divide the squash mixture among the tortillas.
  8. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of goat cheese over each tortilla, then top with the remaining tortillas.
  9. Pour the enchilada sauce over top, and sprinkle each with 1 tablespoon of cotija cheese.
  10. Bake in the preheated oven until hot, about 10 minutes.
  11. Garnish each enchilada with chopped cilantro leaves and a dollop of sour cream to serve.
