  • Author: Emma Carter
  • Total Time: 8 minute

Ingredients

– 10 corn or flour tortillas
– 2 cans (15 oz each) black beans or pinto beans, drained and rinsed
– 2 cups shredded cheese (cheddar, Monterey Jack, or a blend)
– 1 can (10 oz) enchilada sauce
– 1 tablespoon olive oil
– 1 teaspoon cumin
– 1 teaspoon chili powder
– Salt and pepper to taste
– Optional toppings: diced onions, jalapeños, cilantro, or sour cream


Instructions

Making Easy Bean and Cheese Enchiladas is straightforward and uncomplicated. Follow these simple steps:

1. Preheat Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C).
2. Prepare Beans: In a medium bowl, mash the drained beans slightly with a fork. Season with cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper to taste.
3. Add Cheese: Mix in 1 cup of shredded cheese into the bean mixture.
4. Fill Tortillas: Take a tortilla and spoon a generous amount of the bean and cheese mixture into the center. Roll it tightly and place it seam-side down in a greased 9×13 inch baking dish.
5. Repeat: Continue filling and rolling the remaining tortillas, arranging them side by side in the baking dish.
6. Add Sauce: Pour the enchilada sauce evenly over all the rolled tortillas in the dish.
7. Top with Cheese: Sprinkle the remaining cheese over the top of the sauce.
8. Bake: Cover the dish with foil (to avoid over-browning) and bake in the oven for 20 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
9. Cool Slightly: Once baked, let the enchiladas cool for a few minutes before serving.
