You will need a good quality skillet that can go from the stove to the oven. This is one of my kitchen must haves for sure. You can find them on Amazon for around $15. It’s also helpful to coat the sides with a little olive oil to help with clean up. (affiliate link)

If you prep all your veggies beforehand and get everything ready to go you can whip up this delicious dinner in right around 30 minutes from start to finish. Using corn tortillas makes these Veggie Skillet Enchiladas naturally gluten free. For a vegan option, you can omit the cheese or replace with a vegan cheese.

What’s so great about this recipe? You can make the whole thing in one skillet right from the stove to oven to table in about 30 min. Plus this Veggie Skillet Enchilada is packed with beans and brown rice the perfect plant based protein combo. And if I haven’t convinced you yet-it’s delicious!

Even though this is Meatless Monday, you could easily add in another protein into these Veggie Skillet Enchiladas (just don’t tell anyone) 🙂

    • Deborah Brooks says

      02/29/2016 at 1:55 pm

  22. Kathryn @ Dancing to Running says

    02/29/2016 at 12:40 pm

    I’ll have to try this recipe out when I’m done breastfeeding and not trying to limit my dairy intake. But my mouth is watering just looking at your dish!

    • Deborah Brooks says

      02/29/2016 at 1:56 pm

      WEll thanks! You could reduce the cheese or leave it off as well.

  23. Ivanna says

  26. Kristy @Runaway Bridal Planner says

    02/29/2016 at 3:47 pm

    Looks fabulous! I’ve been having Mexican a lot lately, I am trying to use up a lot of my bottled salsa that I canned from my garden 2 years ago (so I can make room for more this year, LOL)
    Love your skillet pictured! I have one like that for camping. But not in the home and I have no idea why that is.

    • Deborah Brooks says

      02/29/2016 at 4:57 pm

      OH they are great to use and easy to clean up! I love homemade salsa the spicier the better

  27. Nicole @ Fitful Focus says

    02/29/2016 at 4:02 pm

    Oooo yum!!! I’m drooling over here!

    • Deborah Brooks says

      02/29/2016 at 4:57 pm

      That was kind of the idea 🙂

  28. Lauren says

    02/29/2016 at 5:00 pm

    yum this looks fab! We do mexican at least once a week so I will def be adding this to our line up!

    • Deborah Brooks says

      02/29/2016 at 5:03 pm

      Great hope you all enjoy!

  29. Jenn says

    02/29/2016 at 7:59 pm

    These look delicious! I love enchiladas, although I tend towards verde, and they are always so challenging to put together. This looks simple and easy!

    • Deborah Brooks says

      02/29/2016 at 8:23 pm

      This is very simple and I suppose you could use the verde sauce if you prefer.

  30. Coco says

    02/29/2016 at 8:11 pm

    This looks great! I would use the frozen roasted peppers mix from TJs to make it even easier!

    • Deborah Brooks says

      02/29/2016 at 8:23 pm

      That should work too!

  31. Akaleistar says

    02/29/2016 at 8:49 pm

    That does look good! I love enchiladas, but I’ve never tried a skillet version.

    • Deborah Brooks says

      02/29/2016 at 9:36 pm

      Oh the skillet makes it so easy!

  32. Karen says

    02/29/2016 at 9:03 pm

    That looks amazing!

    • Deborah Brooks says

      02/29/2016 at 9:37 pm

  33. Sue @ This Mama Runs for Cupcakes says

    Sounds delicious! I’m all about the mexican food!!

    • Deborah Brooks says

      02/29/2016 at 9:40 pm

      Thanks! Me too

  34. Kim Hatting says

    02/29/2016 at 9:32 pm

    Oh, this looks delish! I don’t have stove-to-oven skillet, though….I could probably transfer all the stuff to a baking dish after the “stove top”part is done (?).

    • Deborah Brooks says

      02/29/2016 at 9:40 pm

      You could do that but it’s a lot more work! This one I have been using is really reasonable $15 well worth it in my book.I use it for fritattas and all kinds of stuff

  35. Sana says

    02/29/2016 at 10:46 pm

    I’ve never heard of a skillet that can go from the stove to the oven. That just goes to show you how much time I spend in the kitchen! Awesome recipe as always!

    • Deborah Brooks says

      03/01/2016 at 2:32 pm

      Thanks! oh you so need one I use it for all kinds of recipes very versatile

  36. MCM Mama Runs says

    02/29/2016 at 11:42 pm

    Looks good! I love Mexican food.

    • Deborah Brooks says

      03/01/2016 at 2:33 pm

      Me too! It’s really easy too

  37. Crystal Renaud says

    03/01/2016 at 8:39 am

    You always have the most yummy looking dishes!! This sounds so good. Super easy too but it looks like I need to get me one of those skillets! Have a great week!

  38. Janelle @ Run With No Regrets says

    03/01/2016 at 2:01 pm

    Your meals always look so fresh and delicious! I need to try to make this!

    • Deborah Brooks says

      03/01/2016 at 2:34 pm
