Recipe by:
Sir Paul McCartney

"When I see bacon, I see a pig, I see a little friend, and that's why I can't eat it. Simple as that"

Ingredients

For the Sauce

• 1 cup tomato sauce
• 1 cup water
• 1 large onion, chopped
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 tsp. chili powder
• 1/2 tsp. ground cumin
• 1/2 tsp. oregano
• 2 Tbsp. cornstarch dissolved in 4 Tbsp. water

• 12 tortillas

Directions

Pre-heat the oven to 350ºF. Place all the sauce ingredients, except for the cornstarch, in a small pot and cook over low heat, covered, for 20 minutes. Stir in the cornstarch and cook until the sauce thickens.

In the meantime, prepare the filling: Mix the tofu, onion, chili powder, cumin, garlic, pepper, and picante sauce. Put some of the spinach in hte middle of each tortilla, then add 3 to 4 heaping teaspoons of the tofu mixture, and roll up the tortillas. Top with vegan sour cream, such as Tofutti Sour Cream, or make your own with the recipe on page 81. Lay the enchiladas in a baking dish, cover with sauce, and bake for 20 to 25 minutes.
