Tips:

  • Use canned black beans. They're already cooked and ready to use, which saves time. If you use dried black beans, be sure to soak them overnight before cooking.
  • Shred your own cheese. Pre-shredded cheese contains additives that can prevent it from melting smoothly. Shredding your own cheese ensures that it will melt evenly and create a gooey, delicious filling.
  • Use a variety of cheeses. A combination of cheddar, Monterey Jack, and queso Oaxaca creates a flavorful and complex filling. You can also use other cheeses, such as mozzarella, Pepper Jack, or Colby Jack.
  • Don't overfill the enchiladas. Too much filling will make them difficult to roll and they may burst open when you bake them.
  • Bake the enchiladas until the cheese is melted and bubbly. This usually takes about 20 minutes.
  • Serve the enchiladas with your favorite toppings. Some popular options include sour cream, guacamole, salsa, and pico de gallo.

Conclusion:

Black bean and cheese enchiladas are an easy-to-make, delicious meal that the whole family will love. They're perfect for a weeknight dinner or a weekend brunch. With a few simple tips, you can make the best black bean and cheese enchiladas you've ever tasted!
