Refried Bean & Cheese Enchiladas
Megha Patel
This recipe is always requested every time I post enchiladas on my IG stories, so here you go! My Refried Bean & Cheese Enchiladas are super easy to make and they are a staple in my house. This dish takes me back to my childhood because when my mom made enchiladas for dinner, it was a PARTY!!
My Favorite Tortillas
Tortillas are always a sensitive topic for me because I am a HUGE fan of flour tortillas. I don’t care if corn tortillas are “healthier”… I need my flour ones! I always use the medium size Mission tortillas because they are perfectly pliable and I love the way they taste with enchiladas. As far as portions go, I eat 2 medium sized enchiladas, so if you have the large size, you will likely want to serve 1!
Inside of the Enchiladas
Of course these are Refried Bean & Cheese Enchiladas, but you can always substitute the refried beans for black beans! I love to mash and doctor up black beans, but there’s nothing like refried beans in enchiladas… it just hits different. If you want to add other sources of protein, you can always add seitan, vegan chorizo, or whatever meat you want!
The Best Toppings
I love a classic combo of diced bell peppers, spicy peppers, and scallions on top. In this recipe, I used habaneros, but you can always use sliced jalapenos, or even serranos! If you want to add other veggies on top, you can do mushrooms, or I’ve seen many people add black olives! Options are unlimited folks!! One thing that you guys cannot skip out on is a good Homemade Enchilada Sauce!
