Description

Quick and delicious bean and cheese enchiladas that are budget-friendly and perfect for any night of the week.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 corn tortillas
  • 1 can refried beans
  • 2 cups shredded cheese (cheddar or Monterey Jack)
  • 2 cups enchilada sauce
  • 1/2 cup diced onions (optional)
  • 1/2 cup chopped cilantro (optional)
  • Cooking oil for frying

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a skillet, lightly fry tortillas in oil for a few seconds on each side until pliable.
  3. Spread a spoonful of refried beans on each tortilla, add some cheese and onions, then roll them up.
  4. Place rolled tortillas in a baking dish seam-side down.
  5. Pour enchilada sauce over the top, sprinkle remaining cheese, and add cilantro if desired.
  6. Bake for 20-25 minutes until cheese is bubbly and golden.

Notes

For a vegan version, use dairy-free cheese and spiced lentil mash instead of refried beans. You can also freeze these enchiladas before baking for later use.
