I have never made enchiladas with refried beans before but everyone really enjoyed them! YUM!!!

Great! I made Enchilada Sauce #31811 to go with this, and the combination was terrific. The only addition I made was to add a variety of sauteed peppers to the enchilada sauce under the enchiladas as they baked. I'll be making this again!

SO GOOD! Left out the corn and cooked up some red peppers instead. Cooked the meat with the green onion. Added the salsa for some zest. Cheddar cheese was just fine. Would definitely make again!
