Black Bean Enchiladas Variations
Lower Fat Black Bean Enchiladas:
Use low fat sour cream, non-fat milk, health smart soup, and low fat cheese. You can use fat-free cheese but it will not melt well and this recipe really needs the melted cheese to make the enchiladas creamy.Reduced Cost:
To reduce the cost even further, prepare your own black beans from dry, make your own cream soup, use homemade seasoning, and buy white rice in the largest quantity that you can store and eat in a year.Enchilada Sauce:
Change the sauce by swapping out the chilis for a can of diced tomatoes with chilis or a small jar of salsa.
