Basic Bean Enchiladas

Submitted by Andrea-Oz

"Basic recipe I put together that can be spiced up, ingredients listed under extra ommitted or added to. While the mix itself makes a certain qty, anything not cooked can be frozen for later enchiladas and I've had some success with freezing the cooked product. Corn tortillas are g-f, but watch the sausage if using it - they usually aren't."

My family enjoyed this. Made as directed except not using kidney beans, we just don't like them. Quick and easy. Thanks for sharing.
