INGREDIENTS:
  • 2 cup roasted butternut squash puree (approx. 2lb squash)
  • 1 small red onion, finely chopped (reserve some for topping)
  • 1 medium jalapeño, seeded and minced
  • 2-3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 6 ounces brussels sprouts, thinly sliced  (1 cup)
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 (15-ounce) can black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 24 ounces mild salsa verde (or your preferred enchilada sauce)
  • 12 corn tortillas
  • chopped fresh cilantro and pumpkin seeds for serving

FOR THE CASHEW SOUR CREAM
  • 1 cup raw cashews, soaked*
  • 1/2 cup water
  • juice of 1 lemon
  • 1/4 teaspoon pink salt

DIRECTIONS:
- Preheat the oven to 400°F then line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Cut the stem off of the butternut squash then slice down the center lengthwise. Using a spoon, scoop out the seeds and any strings of flesh. Lightly grease the flesh with high heat oil then lay facing down on the baking sheet. Roast for about 45 minutes, until soft when squeezed with an oven mitt. Reduce heat to 350°F and set squash aside to cool.
- Meanwhile, warm a large skillet with one tablespoon extra virgin olive oil. Add the onion and cook for 3 minutes, until translucent. Then add the jalapeno and garlic, and continue to cook for 2 more minutes.
- To the skillet, add the brussel sprouts along with the spices and salt. Cook for about 5 minutes, until brussels begin to soften. Add the black beans and stir to combine. Remove from heat and set aside.
- Once the squash has cooled, use a spoon to scrape out the flesh into a large bowl. Transfer the vegetable mixture from the skillet to the bowl. Stir together to combine.
- Warm the Tortillas 
- Spread about 1/2 cup of the salsa on the bottom of a 9 x 13 baking dish. Add about 1/3 cup of the filling inside of each tortilla. Roll up then place in the baking dish seam side down until you have assembled all 12 enchiladas. Spread the remaining salsa on top then bake in the preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile prepare the cashew sour cream by combining all of the ingredients in a high speed blender. Blend until smooth. Add more water if needed to thin, one teaspoon at a time. Or more salt/lemon juice, if desired.
- Remove enchiladas from the oven and allow to cool for 5 minutes before serving. Serve warm drizzled with cashew sour cream, cilantro, and pumpkin seeds, and enjoy!


*To soak cashews, bring 2 cups water to a boil. Remove from heat, add the raw cashews and allow to soak for at least 30 minutes. Drain and rinse before using in recipe.
Leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 4 days or frozen for up to 2 months.
