directions

  • Coat a 9 X 9 baking dish with cooking spray and set aside.
  • Coat a medium sized skillet with cooking spray and saute onions until softened.
  • Put in steak, rinsed black beans and taco seasoning mix with water (should say on package-if not around 2/3 cup).
  • Cook until mixture is thickened.

  • Spoon 1/4 of the mixture into the center of each tortilla and roll up.
  • Place enchiladas seam side down in the prepared baking dish.
  • Preheat oven to 350ºF.
  • Pour enchilada sauce over the enchiladas making sure to cover the tortillas and top with remaining cheese.
  • Bake for 15 - 20 minutes or until bubbly.
  • Note: These can be frozen ahead by preparing the enchiladas through #7, bagging in a kit, the sauce in one bag, enchiladas separate, and cheese topping.
  • If you are cooking from the freezer, thaw in the refrigerator, top with sauces and bake as directed.

  1. this was excellent. I am not a black bean fan, and substituted cannelini beans and it was still great. I will definitely be making this again
     
  2. This was a very tasty recipe! I will make it again. I did make a change, instead of taco seasoning, I used my own spice blend of fresh cilantro, garlic, curry powder (just a pinch), hungarian paprika, and chili powder.
     
  3. This was my first time making enchiladas. We had leftover tri-tip that I used. I one-and-a-halfed the recipe, more or less. I simmered the sauce for about 10 minutes before adding the corn and cheese. I used a 9x12 baking dish and squeezed 6 enchiladas in. Baked at 350 for 20 minutes. We all liked it!
     
  4. We love love LOVE these with, really, AND leftover meat we have from the week diced up! This last time it was leftover Bacon-Wrapped Pork Tenderloin Enchiladas!!
     
  5. Yum that was delicious! Made as written except I used 6 tortillas. Thanks for posting!

  1. Recipe takes 8-10 tortillas that are 9”. Put a generous 1/4 cup of filling on each tortilla. I used what I had on hand, including green chile enchilada sauce and hot pepper jack cheese. Great recipe and got a thumbs-up from the husband!

I live in Las Vegas. I was lucky enough to run into Recipezaar around Nov. 2000 and got hooked quickly. I am a cookbook collector and have been collecting recipes for as long as I can remember. My DH had to build in shelves for all my cookbooks! I like to dabble with OAMC and for a few years hosted the Budget/OAMC forum with some great people over there. Even though I don't work in the forum any longer I've set up a lot of cookbooks for the purpose of OAMC and stretching food that might be helpful. Please feel free to check them out! I go on food jags and cooking jags! Please come say hi to me and chat on facebook. I currently host a blog for saving money through finding deals and coupons if you are interested. Most of the time I try to cook and have a good dinner on the table but I'll be honest enough to say there is still fast food occasionally in the budget! I have had such wonderful support here whenever I need it. Thank you all for being here! Just a quick note on how I rate recipes: ? 5 stars - This recipe is perfect. (My DH is truly a critic and doesn't give 5's unless it's amazing) I would recommend it to others and would definitely make again. ? 4 stars - This recipe was good but I would change something in it next time. ? 3 stars - This is a recipe I would not make again but it was OK ? 2 stars - This recipe I would not make again and we didn't like it at all ? 1 star - This recipes did not work out/taste was unappealing and wouldn't make again
