These vegetarian enchiladas use a lot of garden favorites in a quick weeknight meal. Feel free to substitute whatever vegetables you have from your garden—yellow summer squash, eggplant and corn all taste great here, too. —Elisabeth Larsen, Pleasant Grv, Utah

Ingredients

3 medium zucchini, quartered lengthwise and sliced
1 poblano pepper, seeded and chopped
8 ounces sliced fresh mushrooms
8 ounces cherry tomatoes
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese
1 cup crumbled queso fresco or feta cheese, divided
1/2 cup minced fresh cilantro, divided
2 tablespoons lime juice
14 corn tortillas (6 inches), warmed
1 can (15 ounces) enchilada sauce

Directions

Preheat oven to 400°. In a large bowl, combine zucchini, poblano, mushrooms and tomatoes; drizzle with oil and sprinkle with cumin, salt and cayenne. Toss to coat. Divide vegetable mixture between 2 lightly greased 15x10x1-in. baking pans. Roast 15 minutes; rotate pans top to bottom. Roast an additional 10 minutes or until vegetables are tender. Return to bowl and cool slightly.
Stir in Monterey Jack cheese, 1/2 cup queso fresco, 1/4 cup cilantro and lime juice. Place a scant 1/2 cup vegetable mixture off center on each tortilla. Roll up and place in a greased 13x9-in. baking dish, seam side down. Top with enchilada sauce; sprinkle with remaining queso fresco.
Bake, uncovered, until enchiladas are heated through and cheese is melted, about 20 minutes. Top with remaining cilantro.

Test Kitchen tips

Roasting the veggies before making the enchiladas takes extra time, but it adds so much flavor! Don't skip it.

Poblano peppers are mild and great for stuffing, since they have thick walls. Anaheim or bell peppers are good substitutes.
