Ingredients
  

  • 1 can black beans 15-ounce
  • 3/4 cup water
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 2 tablespoons cilantro chopped
  • 1/2 tablespoon adobo sauce from chipotles in adobo sauce
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon Kosher salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
  • 12 pieces corn tortillas
  • 1 1/2 cups Oaxaca or Monterey Jack cheese freshly shredded

Instructions
 

  • Add all of the sauce ingredients to a blender and process until smooth and pureed.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 and have ready a greased 9x13 casserole dish.
  • Spoon just enough of the black bean sauce to the bottom of the dish and pour the remaining sauce into a shallow bowl or dish.
  • Stack 4-6 tortillas and wrap loosely in damp paper towels. Microwave for about 30 seconds, just until the tortillas are warmed through. Repeat with any remaining corn tortillas.
  • Dip a corn tortilla into the bowl of sauce to coat. Then, transfer to a work surface and add a generous tablespoon of cheese down the center. Roll the tortilla and place it seam-side down in the casserole dish. Repeat with the remaining tortillas.
  • Once all the tortillas have been assembled, pour the remaining black bean sauce over the top and sprinkle with the remaining cheese.
  • Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 30 minutes. Serve and enjoy!
