====== Black Bean Enchiladas ====== {{recipes:casserole:black_bean_enchiladas:screen_shot_2018-01-17_at_10.37.33_pm.png?600|}} ===== Ingredients ===== * 1 small yellow onion (or 1/2 large onion), diced small * 1 sweet bell pepper, diced small * 1 (16-ounce) can black beans, drained and rinsed * 1 cup frozen corn kernels * 2 teaspoons chili powder * 1 teaspoon ground cumin * 1 teaspoon kosher salt * 1 1/2 cups shredded Monterey Jack, colby, or other melting cheese, divided * 2 (16-ounce) jars salsa, any kind * 12 to 15 medium (6-inch or so) flour tortillas * Optional: 1 cup leftover meat or extra veggies — chicken, pork, hamburger, beef, baked tofu, or roasted vegetables ===== Info ===== * **Prep:** - * **Cook:** - * **Serves:** 6-8 * [[https://www.thekitchn.com/recipe-slow-cooker-black-bean-enchiladas-dinner-recipes-from-the-kitchn-127016|Source]] ---- {(rater>id=117|name=recipes:casserole:black_bean_enchiladas|type=rate|headline=off)} ===== Directions ===== - Place the onion, bell pepper, black beans, corn, chili powder, cumin, salt, 1/2 cup of the cheese, and meat (if using) in a medium bowl and stir to combine. Spread about 1 cup of the salsa over the bottom of a 6-quart (or larger) slow cooker, enough to evenly coat the bottom with a bit of sauce. - Fill each of the tortillas with about 1/3 cup of the filling, roll them up as tightly as you can, and pack them seam-side down in a single layer into the bottom of the slow cooker. Don't worry if some filling falls out — just tuck it back in once you've set the tortilla down. - When you complete the first layer (you will make 3 layers), spread about another cup of salsa over the top and sprinkle with about 1/2 cup of the remaining cheese. Continue rolling the remaining tortillas with the remaining filling to make one more layer; if you have leftover filling, sprinkle this over the top. Finish by pouring the 1 cup of the salsa evenly over the top of the enchiladas. Reserve the last 1/2 cup of cheese to add later. - Cover and cook on HIGH the setting for 2 to 4 hours. In the last 15 minutes of cooking, sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of cheese over the top, re-cover the slow cooker, and finish cooking. Serve the enchiladas with any remaining salsa. {{tag>reg:mexican bell_pepper black_beans beans corn cheese salsa tortillas vegetarian slow_cooker}} ~~NOTOC~~ ~~DISCUSSION|Notes~~
