Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375˚F.
- Mix together the carnitas, black beans, and half of the cheese and mix together in a large bowl. Set aside.
- Heat the enchilada sauce over low in a large skillet. Once it starts to simmer around the edges, place 2-3 tortillas in the sauce and turn to coat. Let them cook in the sauce for about 30 sec or until they become soft and pliable.
- Use tongs to take the tortillas out one at a time. Stuff them with the carnitas mixture, roll tightly, and place in a 2 quart casserole dish. Repeat with remaining tortillas until all of the tortillas are stuffed, rolled, and in the casserole dish.
- Pour the remaining sauce over the enchiladas and top with the remaining cheese.Cover with foil and bake for 20 minutes.
- Once done, remove the foil and garnish with fresh pico de gallo, sour cream, or whatever toppings you love!
