  • 5 garlic cloves minced
  • 1 large green pepper diced
  • 1 cup frozen corn
  • 2 tablespoons cream cheese
  • 10 large flour tortillas
  • 1.5 cups shredded Mexican cheese divided
  • 15 oz black beans drained
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 2 teaspoons cumin
  • 0.5 teaspoon chili powder
  • 0.5 large lime juiced, plus more for serving

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Combine the onion, garlic, green pepper, olive oil, and salt in a large skillet. Sauté over medium-high heat until the onion becomes translucent and soft.
  • Add the frozen corn and cook until defrosted. Then, incorporate black beans, cream cheese, 0.5 cup shredded cheese, smoked paprika, cumin, chili powder, and lime juice.
  • Warm the tortillas to prevent breaking. Distribute the filling, roll up, and place seam-side down in a greased baking dish.
  • Cover with enchilada sauce, sprinkle remaining cheese, and bake at 350°F for 20-25 minutes until bubbly. Broil for 1-2 minutes if desired.
