Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Cook the Rice and Beans

    In a pot, cook the rice according to the package instructions. In another pot, heat the black beans until warmed through. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Tortillas

    Lightly warm the corn tortillas in a skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side until pliable.

Assemble the Enchiladas

  1. 3

    Fill the Tortillas

    Take a warmed tortilla and place about 1/3 cup of shredded muenster cheese in the center. Roll it up tightly and place it seam side down in a baking dish. Repeat for the remaining tortillas.

  2. 4

    Add Sauce

    Pour your choice of green, red, or mole sauce evenly over the rolled tortillas in the baking dish, ensuring they are well covered.

Bake and Serve

  1. 5

    Bake the Enchiladas

    Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the baking dish in the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

  2. 6

    Prepare the Garnishes

    While the enchiladas are baking, prepare the sour cream, shredded lettuce, and pico de gallo for serving.

  3. 7

    Serve

    Once baked, remove the enchiladas from the oven and serve hot with a dollop of sour cream, a sprinkle of shredded lettuce, and a generous scoop of pico de gallo. Serve with rice and beans on the side.
