About Cheese enfrijolada

Cheese enfrijoladas are a traditional dish from Mexican cuisine, blending rich flavors and simple ingredients. Enfrijoladas consist of corn tortillas smothered in a creamy black bean sauce, typically made by pureeing cooked beans with garlic, onion, and spices. They are filled with crumbly cheese, such as queso fresco or panela, and often garnished with fresh cilantro, diced onions, or ripe avocado slices. Some recipes include a drizzle of sour cream for added richness. This dish offers nutritional benefits, including fiber and plant-based protein from the beans, as well as calcium from the cheese. However, to make it healthier, one can limit added salt and use reduced-fat cheese options. Enfrijoladas are naturally gluten-free and can be adapted for vegetarian or vegan diets, making them both versatile and satisfying. Traditional recipes may include frying the tortillas, which adds fat and calories, but baking or steaming them can provide a lighter alternative.
