When I do make brunch at home, I am going for healthy and tasty. So this is my interpretation of a somewhat healthy/tasty chilaquiles recipe. I had leftover ingredients from enchiladas I made a few days before so I thought why not make a brunch version of an enchilada with my favorite part of the enchiladas…the red sauce!

Chicago Restaurant Week for Vegetarians and Pescatarians 2019

Fiery Black Bean Enchiladas Recipe
Cooks in 1 hour Difficulty MediumI feel like there’s a plethora of delicious taco joints throughout Chicago, but I have a hard time finding delicious Enchiladas in the city.
