Enfrijoladas

Cheese Stuffed Corn Tortillas Bathed in a Black Bean Sauce

Enfrijoladas are a delightful vegetarian dish featuring cheese-stuffed tortillas bathed in a hearty black bean sauce. In this versatile recipe, beans take centre stage rather than a mere side dish. Add a touch of chili for extra kick or garnish with fresh coriander to elevate the flavors. Plus, with two types of cheese, it’s simply irresistible!
