easy beefy cheesy enchiladas

my mother-in-law made this dish for us the other day and it was so good we made it tonight.

it calls for a lot of fresssshhhh ingredients which is really fun and is really good.

the only downside is it takes a little while to make (the chopping of the onions and peppers and stuff is why it takes so long)

BUT it is pretty tasty so i thought i'd share it on here.

nate and i didn't even eat half of it because it's so feeling and now have some AWESOME leftovers for lunches and dinners this week.

Tortilla and Black Bean Pie

Hi everyone! Kelsie here. My Mom (Mama J) sent me this recipe, and it looks delicious!

Here's what she had to say about the recipe:

"I made this tonight...it was actually really good. I made homeade guacamole to go with it. Yummy. I didn't put in the Jalepeno pepper since I didn't have one."

Anything with homemade guacamole sounds good to me!

4 flour tortillas (10 inch)

1 tablespoon oil

1 large onion, diced

1 jalapeno chili, minced (remove seeds and ribs for less heat)

2 garlic cloves, minced

1/2 teaspoon ground cumin

Course salt and pepper

2 cans (15 ounce each) black beans, drained and rinsed

1 1/2 cups water

1 package (10 ounce) frozen corn

2 cups cooked shredded chicken

4 scallions, thinly sliced, plus more for garnish

2 1/2 cups shredded Cheddar Cheese (8 ounces)

1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Using a paring knife, trim the tortillas to fit a 9 inch spring form pan, using the bottom of the pan as a guide. Set aside.

2. Heat the oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the onion, jalapeno, garlic, and cumin; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally until the onion is softened, 5 to 7 minutes.

3. Add the beans and beer to the skillet, and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium; simmer until the liquid has almost evaporated, 8 to 10 minutes. Stir in the corn and scallions, and chicken and remove from the heat. Season with salt and pepper.

4. Fit a trimmed tortilla in the bottom of the spring form pan; later with one quarter of the beans and 1/2 cup cheese. Repeat 3 times, using 1 cup cheese on the top layer. Bake until hot and the cheese is melted, 20-25 minutes. Unmold the pie; sprinkle with scallions. Slice into wedges, and serve immediately. Serve salsa and sour cream on the side.
