Let's Get Started
- Preheat the oven to 375°F.
- In a large skillet, heat some oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion, bell peppers, and minced garlic. Cook until the vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes.
- Add the cooked pinto beans, corn kernels, cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper to the skillet. Stir well to combine and cook for another 2-3 minutes.
- Warm the tortillas in the microwave or on a skillet to make them pliable.
- Spread a thin layer of enchilada sauce on the bottom of a baking dish.
- Place a spoonful of the bean and vegetable mixture onto each tortilla and roll it up tightly. Place the rolled tortillas seam-side down in the baking dish.
- Pour the remaining enchilada sauce over the rolled tortillas, making sure they are fully covered.
- Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the top of the enchiladas.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Garnish with fresh cilantro before serving.
