  • ¼ conion chopped
  • 4 ozgreen chiles hot or mild - you choose
  • 15 ozblack beans drained or rinsed (pintos would work as well)
  • 1 ½ ccheddar cheese shredded (divided)
  • 6ea tortillas i like the flour xl burrito size - but you can make them smaller if you like or use corn. technically corn makes them enchiladas but that's okay
  • 20 ozenchilada sauce red (green, homemade, whatever you like)
  • 1 clettuce shredded
  • ¼ ctomato diced
  • sour cream
  • salsa

Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line a 13x9 cake pan with foil or spray liberally with non-stick cooking spray.

  2. 2

    In a skillet brown chorizo and onion together until cooked through, stir in black beans and green chiles and heat through. If you have chorizo & onion in the fridge like I sometimes do when I cook ahead, take it out and microwave it with the beans & chiles until warm

  3. 3

    Stir in 1/2 C Cheddar Cheese

  4. 4

    Add about 2/3 C Mixture to an XL Tortilla - less if you use smaller. Top with a sprinkle of cheese (1/2 cup total - reserving 1/2 cup for the end) and roll up burrito style.

  5. 5

    Place in your prepared 13x9 cake pan and tuck them together. You should get about 6 big ones out of this mixture.

  6. 6

    Bake, uncovered, for about 20-25 minutes until the tortillas get a bit crispy - pull from oven and pour over the enchilada sauce and sprinkle remaining 1/2 C cheese on top and sprinkle with a few green onions. Slide back into the oven for about 15 more minutes.

  7. 7

    Enjoy with lettuce, tomato salsa, and sour cream!
