Description
Enchilada style refried beans! Take that can of refried beans and make it sing with enchilada sauce, shredded cheese, white onion and fresh cilantro. (p.s. – this is also an incredible bean dip!)
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 can (16oz) refried beans
- 1 can (15oz) red enchilada sauce
- 1 1/2 cups shredded cheese
- 1/4 – 1/2 cup diced white onion, to taste
- 1/4 – 1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro, to taste
Instructions
- Heat the beans in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
- Add about a cup of the red enchilada sauce and stir to combine. Add more enchilada sauce as you need it until the consistency is like a bean dip.
- Once the beans are heated through, add a cup of shredded cheese and stir until melted into the beans.
- Pour the beans into your serving bowl. Top with the remaining cheese, diced onion, and cilantro.
- Swirl about a 1/4 cup of the enchilada sauce over everything, then serve!
Notes
- Grate your own cheese if possible. I used cojack, but cheddar is good too.
- If you don’t have enchilada sauce, you can use your favorite salsa instead.
- This also makes a great bean dip!
