If you're looking for a fun meat-free meal, these enchiladas are it. From the tomatoey, mildly spiced butter beans, to the sweet and zingy charred corn salsa, every bite is a delight - and you'd never know that the cheese and aioli are plant-based.

Produced in a facility that processes eggs, milk, fish, peanuts, sesame, shellfish, soy, tree nuts, and wheat.

Cooking Steps

1
1

Finely chop onion and garlic. Roughly chop capsicum and herbs (including the stems). Grate the carrot. Drain the sweetcorn. Drain and rinse butter beans.

2

Heat a large frying pan over high heat. Cook corn kernels until lightly browned, 4-5 minutes. Transfer to a medium bowl and set aside.

TIP: Cover the pan with a lid if the kernels are "popping" out.

Return pan to high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook onion, capsicum and carrot until softened, 5-6 minutes. Add All-American spice blend and garlic and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. Add beans, vegetable stock powder, the plant-based butter, the water and 1/2 the passata. Cook until slightly thickened, 1 minute. Remove pan from heat. Lightly crush beans with a potato masher or fork. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Preheat grill to high. Drizzle a baking dish with olive oil. Lay mini flour tortillas on a chopping board. Spoon some bean mixture down the centre of a tortilla, then roll it up tightly and place, seam-side down, in the baking dish. Repeat with remaining tortillas and bean mixture, ensuring tortillas fit together snugly. Pour over remaining passata. Sprinkle with plant-based shredded Cheddar cheese. Grill enchiladas until warmed through and cheese is slightly melted and golden, 6-10 minutes.

TIP: Grills cook fast, so keep an eye on the enchiladas!

Review summary

Updated on July 2026
  • Flavour:Ā The bean filling and charred corn salsa were widely praised, though some found the overall seasoning a little mild and suggested adjusting the All-American spice blend to taste.
  • Ease of prep:Ā Most found this straightforward and quick to pull together, though a few noted the prep took longer than expected.
  • Suggestions:Ā Several customers swapped the plant-based cheese for regular cheddar, and many recommended serving with sour cream or Greek yoghurt alongside. Some also tried kidney or black beans in place of butter beans for a firmer texture.
  • Leftovers:Ā A number of customers noted the filling made generous amounts, with several enjoying the leftovers for lunch the next day.
  • Plant-based cheese:Ā The plant-based cheese was a common sticking point — many found it did not melt well and had an unusual flavour, so substituting regular cheese is worth considering if you prefer it.
  • Portions:Ā Opinions were mixed on serving size; some felt it was generous while others found the tortillas insufficient for the amount of filling, and suggested using larger or extra tortillas.
