How to Make Bean And Cheese Enchiladas

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Lightly brush one side of each tortilla with shortening.
  3. Stack tortillas, shortening-side up, in a microwave-safe stack.
  4. Microwave on high for 3-4 minutes to soften. Let cool slightly.
  5. In a medium bowl, gently mix the drained beans and chopped onion.
  6. In a separate bowl, combine shredded cheese.
  7. Lightly coat the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish with a small amount of bean liquid.
  8. Place about 1/4 cup of the cheese mixture onto each tortilla.
  9. Add a spoonful of the bean and onion mixture on top of the cheese.
  10. Roll up each tortilla tightly and place seam-down in the prepared baking dish.
  11. Pour any remaining bean mixture and cheese over the enchiladas.
  12. Bake for 20-30 minutes, or until heated through and cheese is melted and bubbly.
  13. Let cool for 5 minutes before serving. Top with your favorite toppings and enjoy!
