Method

Preparation of Sauce

  1. 1

    Make the Sauce

    In a medium saucepan, combine tomato sauce, chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder, cumin, salt, and water. Stir well to combine.

  2. 2

    Simmer the Sauce

    Bring the sauce to a simmer over medium heat. Reduce heat to low and let it simmer for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Filling the Enchiladas

  1. 3

    Prepare the Filling

    In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded cheese and refried beans. Mix well until fully incorporated.

  2. 4

    Fill the Tortillas

    Take a corn tortilla, add about 2 tablespoons of the cheese and bean mixture in the center, and roll it up tightly. Place seam-side down in a baking dish. Repeat until all tortillas are filled.

Baking the Enchiladas

  1. 5

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

  2. 6

    Add Sauce

    Pour the simmered sauce evenly over the filled tortillas in the baking dish.

  3. 7

    Bake

    Cover the baking dish with foil and bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Then, remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes to brown the top.

    Garnish

    Once out of the oven, let the enchiladas cool for a few minutes. Serve topped with sour cream, chopped cilantro, and sliced jalapeños as desired.
