Cheesey Poblano and Corn Enchiladas… need I say more!?
Charred sweet corn, poblano peppers, and zucchini, tossed with salsa verde, then wrapped up in tortillas… I can’t say enough or describe these enough, you just have to trust me and make them!! I had left over chicken, I I threw that in the mix also.
These take a little more time than the usual quick Enchiladas, that grace my kitchen table. These are bursting with flavor and a nice mix up! I hope you try them!
Tag me and let me know if you do! Enjoy ~Jeanne
