Delicious, made for a late lunch today. Used pinto beans that I cooked in a crock pot for another recipe. This was so good and easy. Served them with chopped onion, salsa, queso, guacamole and pickled jalapenos. My family really enjoyed. Will make again. Read More

A great blend of flavors with the mild creaminess of the melted mozzarella cheese allowing the flavor of the black beans to come through. Read More

Simple and very tasty. I should add that I haven t made the tortilla part yet just the filling but boy is it good! I added a chopped scallion to the onions (had one and needed to use it) and a bit of garlic powder and cumin (because I love those flavors). The folks at work will be jealous! Read More

I loved this! I made it exact except I used smaller tortillas so it made 4 instead of 2. It was delicious. I had a side of corn on the cob (from which I got an easy way to get the husk off from this website). It paired perfectly. I will definitely make this again! Read More

Frankly I was amazed how delicious this was. Added chopped tomatoes used Colby Jack cheese and Mrs. Dash tomato basil garlic instead of salt & pepper. Forgot to dip in salsa but didn't matter! Read More

Worth buying mushrooms to complete the dish. Use any cheese that melts and add southwestern spice Read More
