SOUTHWEST BLACK BEAN AND CORN ENCHILADAS

Steps:

• Heat oil in a pan until it shimmers.
• Add the onion and bell pepper and cook for about thirty seconds.
• Add the garlic, cumin and mexican oregano and cook until the onions and peppers are really soft.
• Add the salsa and black beans and cook until heated through.
• Using a potato masher, roughly mash the black beans so that some are broken and some are whole.
• Add the corn and cook until heated through.
• Stir in the sour cream.
• Spray a 9 X 13" casserole pan with cooking spray.
• Spread about a 1/2 cup of the enchilada sauce over the bottom of the casserole dish.
• Spoon the black bean mixture evenly in the center of the tortillas.
• Roll the tortillas up leaving the ends open, and place them seem down in the casserole dish. When I made this I got 6 pretty well stuffed tortillas and it almost totally filled my baking pan.
• Pour the rest of the enchilada sauce over the enchiladas, and use more or less to suit your liking.
• Cooking times vary. If you make this dish ahead of time and put it in the fridge and it cools down all the way I cover it with foil and put it in a 350 degree oven for 30 minutes, and then uncover it and sprinkle the cheese all over it and return it to the oven for another 15 minutes or until it's bubbling and heated through. If you make the bean mixture and stuff the tortillas immediately you won't have to bake it for as long, 10 minutes at 350 degrees uncovered and then sprinkle the cheese over and bake for another 10 minutes and that should do it. Since everything has already been cooked the key here is just getting it heated through.
• Serve topped with your favorite enchilada toppings.
• Enjoy!

• Saute the onions and garlic in the oil on medium heat. (If you are adding hot peppers, add them here) When soft and translucent, add the corn, beans, tomato sauce, salt and cumin. Stir to combine, and allow to heat through.
• When bean mixture is hot through, prepare the enchiladas:.
• Pour the enchilada sauce onto a plate or soup plate. Dip a tortilla into the sauce, making sure to coat both sides of the tortilla.
• Lay the first tortilla in one of the pans and spoon about 1/6 of the bean mixture on it.
• Sprinkle 1/8 of the cheese over the filling. Dip another tortilla in the sauce, lay it over the first tortilla and add bean mixture and cheese as before. Continue with the third tortilla. The last tortilla on each stack does not get bean mixture, only cheese. Make two stacks of 4 tortillas each.
• Gently spoon the remainder of the enchilada sauce over the tortillas.
• Bake at 350°F for 20-30 minutes, until hot through and cheese is melted. Serve immediately, with sour cream on the side.
