Avocado Black Bean Enchiladas {skinny} – Healthy and tasty enchiladas filled with seasoned black beans and creamy avocado slices!
Hello beauties.
I just love green. It’s my all-time favorite color for… well just about anything. Shoes, sheets, toe nail polish (I only paint my toes, never my fingers) palm trees and I’m crazy for the dyed-green gerber daises. Also when it comes to food? Some of my favorite foods are green. Limes. (for sweet or savory, doesn’t matter) Jalapeños. (I eat em plain!) And green enchilada sauce. With a straw. I love that stuff. Oh and avocados. Duh!
I feel like the avocados are really the star of these enchiladas. The black beans though are a beautiful accent to that creamy avocado in every bite. Throw those two in with a few seasonings, roll up those tortillas, cover it all with green enchilada sauce, pop em in the oven. 15 minutes later you’ll be sinking your teeth into these tasty enchiladas. Oh and did I mention they’re healthy? Yeah they are. Just a bonus.

This recipe was absolutely delicious! Just a hint of heat, not too hot. Definitely will make this again. I added about 1/2 cup of leftover diced roasted sweet potatoes, otherwise followed recipe exactly.
These enchiladas are fantastic!!! Tangy, creamy, beany- all of the things we crave. My husband kept eating the mixed ingredients while we were assembling and absolutely loved the finished dish. Great job!!
