These Gluten-free and Dairy Free Sweet Potato and Black Bean Enchiladas were next-level. It’s Mexican comfort food with the perfect balance of heat for the colder weather.

 

Servings: 12

 

Equipment

9×13" baking pan

 

Ingredients

 

Mole Sauce Recipe (Vegan)

1 tbsp chili powder

4 Tbsp Gluten-Free all-purpose flour

2 tsp ground cinnamon

2 tsp ground cumin

1/2 tsp teaspoon dried oregano

2 Tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder

4 cups vegetable stock

4 Tbsp tomato paste

2 tsp sea salt

 

Enchiladas Ingredients

2 cups rice cooked

1 cup vegetable broth

1 tbsp cumin

2 cups sweet potatoes peeled and chopped into ½ in. cubes

2 Tbsp olive oil

salt and freshly ground black pepper

4 garlic cloves minced

1 bell pepper diced (any color you like)

1/2 red onion chopped

15 ounce can black beans drained and rinsed

3 cups vegan cheese divided

Salt to taste

12 large gluten-free tortillas

 

Coriander-Lime Sauce Ingredients

1 cup Coriander packed

1 Lime juiced

1 cup Vegan mayo

 

Optional toppings

fresh coriander Chopped (for topping)

Freshly ground pepper

Chili flakes for extra spice

Coriander lime sauce

 

Instructions

Mole sauce

In a small bowl, mix in the flour, spices and cocoa and mix till well combined.

In a medium-sized pot over medium heat, add oil and the flour/spice mixture. While whisking constantly, cook until fragrant and slightly deepened in color, about 1 minute. Whisk the tomato paste and slowly pour in the broth while whisking constantly to remove any lumps.

Raise heat to medium and bring to a simmer. Cook, whisking often, for about 5 to 7 minutes, until the sauce has thickened. (The sauce will thicken some more as it cools.)

Remove from heat, and season to taste with a generous amount of freshly ground black pepper. Add more salt, if necessary (I usually add another pinch or two).

 

Enchilada Instructions

Preheat oven to 400˚F(170˚C) with one rack in the middle of the oven and one in the upper third. Lightly grease a 9 by 13-inch pan with olive oil or cooking spray.

In a large skillet over medium heat, warm the olive oil until simmering. Add the onions and a pinch of salt. Cook, stirring often, until the onions are tender and translucent, about 5 to 7 minutes. Add bell pepper and sweet potatoes, and reduce heat to medium-low. Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 8 to 9 minutes until potatoes soften.

Add the cumin, cinnamon, black bean, rice and corn to the pot and cook until fragrant, about 5 minutes. Salt to taste

 

Assembling the Enchiladas

Pour ¼ cup enchilada sauce into your prepared pan and tilt it from side to side until the bottom of the pan is evenly coated. To assemble your enchiladas, spread ½ cup filling down the middle of a tortilla, then tightly roll it placing it seam side down. Repeat till baking dish is full. You should fit approximately 8-9 the rest you’ll need another baking dish.

Pour the remaining enchilada sauce, leaving the tips of the enchiladas bare. Sprinkle the shredded cheese evenly.

Bake, uncovered, on the middle rack for 20 minutes.

Remove from oven and let the enchiladas rest for 10 minutes. For serving, sprinkle chopped cilantro, cracked pepper, chili flakes and drizzle the coriander mayo all over.

      People who are Celiac don't have a gluten response to Quinoa, but some people who are gluten intolerant do.  I react to quinoa just like I do to gluten.  Freddies/Kroger came out with their own gluten-free Bread and I didn't think to read the ingredients.  I couldn't figure out where I would have gotten gluten in my diet until I read the ingredients in their bread... QUINOA

      Thanks for the additional information. I was thinking of asking you if your daughter was taking methylated vitamins since she has the MTHFR gene but you beat me to it. To answer the question you posed in your original post, as I explained, celiac disease does not damage the colon but the lining of the small bowel. If the damage is pronounced enough and the doc doing it is experienced, yes, the damage done to the lining of the small bowel can be spotted with the naked eye.

      I could not locate the correct Gary Brecka video where he explains the methylation process and specifically states things about how people with the MTRR homozygous gene mutation are known to suffer from heartburn due to a weakened valve/sphincter where the esophagus and the stomach connect.  My brother had the youtube video sent to him from 10x health which is probably why I cannot locate it.     I will have read up on mast cell activation.  I do not know anything about it.  Tums is my preferred gerd treatment.  I always figured a little extra calcium could not hurt me.

      Trents: Due to a genetic mutation, my daughter has inherited from both parents she cannot process the Folic Acid provided in the fortified American grains.   An MD told her to avoid eating fortified grains.   My daughter makes the assumption that unless she makes the food item, that the baker used a fortified grain so she has been limiting her gluten intake since 2020.   Her Psychiatrist was who tested her for MTHFR gene issue because she suffers from depression and severe anxiety. The Psychatrist also instructed my daughter to supplement with a methylated version of folate once she knew my daughter was homozygous, because the methylated version bypasses the mutated gene step so her body can absorb it.  Low folate absorption impacts serotonin and dopamine production.  My husband and I also both have two other homozygous gene mutations that interfere with vitamin absorption: MTRR and VDR taq.  The first interferes with B-12 absorption which requires us to take a methylated B-12 vitamin and the second with Vitamin D absorption so we have to take higher doses to stay within normal levels.   My brother, who has the exact same gene mutations, went through 10x health genetic testing for vitamin supplements (paid by his employer) and received a huge report saying the same things about which types of supplements had to be taken.  Gary Brecka does videos on how these gene mutations impact the vitamin absorption pathways.       If my brother had not gotten his testing through work, he would never would have started his supplement journey.  His testing is what triggered my getting functional health testing that tested similar biomarkers to his.  Again the celiac testing was an add-on test that I did off the cuff.

      Welcome to the forum, @growlinhard1! If eliminating gluten from your diet makes significant improvement in your symptoms then there are two possibilities. Either you have celiac disease (aka, gluten intolerance) or NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity, aka, gluten sensitivity). The difference is that celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that creates inflammation and, over time, damages the lining of the small bowel which inhibits nutrient absorption whereas NCGS does not damage the lining of the small bowel. They share many of the same symptoms. At the end of the day, the antidote for both is to abstain from foods that contain wheat, barley or rye, the three gluten-containing grains. Some countries supply stipends and healthcare benefits for those with an official celiac diagnosis. If you live in the USA that does not apply. The main reasons for seeking an official celiac diagnosis are psychological and social. Many people have a hard time not falling off the gluten free bandwagon without an official diagnosis. They find it easy to rationalize it all away as being temporary or due to something else. When you have an official diagnosis, you tend to take gluten-free eating more seriously. Socially, family and friends are more likely to respect and attempt to comply with your need to eat gluten free if you have an official diagnosis of celiac disease. Your physician is more likely to take you seriously as well if you have an official diagnosis because there are typically other health problems that are spinoffs which develop from celiac disease in time. One autoimmune disease invites others. There are no tests for NCGS. Celiac disease must first be ruled out. We do have specific tests for celiac disease. By the way, some experts believe that NCGS can transition into celiac disease. If your endoscopy/biopsy is only a month away, I would encourage you to stick it out and go back on gluten to get an official diagnosis. You still have time to get a valid test result if you start back on gluten now, 10g of gluten daily which is about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread.
