Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Ground beef or turkey
- 1 medium Yellow onion, diced
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 15 ounces Enchilada sauce
- 15 ounces Black beans, drained and rinsed
- 1 cup Frozen corn kernels
- 1 teaspoon Chili powder
- 1 teaspoon Cumin
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Pepper
- 6 pieces Flour tortillas (8-inch)
- 2 cups Shredded Mexican blend cheese
- 2 tablespoons Green onions, sliced (optional, for garnish)
- 2 tablespoons Cilantro, chopped (optional, for garnish)
- 0.5 cup Sour cream (optional, for serving)
Instructions
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef or turkey until browned and fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess grease.
Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes until softened and fragrant.
Stir in the enchilada sauce, black beans, corn, chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper. Mix well and let it simmer for 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat.
Spray the inside of your crock pot with non-stick cooking spray or lightly grease it with oil to prevent sticking.
Place one flour tortilla at the bottom of the crock pot. Spread a layer of the enchilada filling (approximately 1 cup) evenly over the tortilla.
Sprinkle a layer of shredded cheese (about 1/3 cup) over the filling.
Repeat the layering process—tortilla, filling, cheese—until all the ingredients are used up, ending with a layer of filling topped with cheese.
Cover the crock pot and cook on low for 4 hours, or until the cheese is fully melted and bubbly and the flavors are well combined.
Once cooked, turn off the crock pot and let the enchiladas rest for 10 minutes before cutting to allow the layers to set.
Garnish with sliced green onions, chopped cilantro, and a dollop of sour cream, if desired. Serve warm and enjoy!
