Bean Potato Enchiladas

“A seasoned bean and potato mixture is wrapped with Monterey Jack cheese in corn tortillas, then baked with an enchilada sauce, and topped with Cheddar cheese. This sounds strange, but it's really, really good. I came up with this when I was craving Mexican food and we didn't have may traditional ingredients in the house. It came out great, and it received rave reviews.”

i make this all the time. we loveeeeee it. its on our monthly meal list. i actually prefer the mashed potatoes over cubed. unlike most of the reviewers. & i came across these habanero flour tortillas at trader joes that are really good with this recipes. We love black olives so we toss some on at the end when you put the rest of the shredded cheese on, its really good like that.

We love these. The only thing we do different is we lightly sautée the onions before adding to the burrito mix because they are too raw for us otherwise.

This was very good! I sauteed the onion and a little green pepper before adding it to the potato mixture. We had some left over and used it for a quesadilla the next day and it was good there too.

Slightly tweeked the recipe by using both black and pinto beans, also added a bit of cilantro to the potatoes. All in all the best non meat enchiladas I've ever made.

These looked and sounded really good but I didn't care for them. I really like trying different enchilada recipes but I just didn't care for the texture of the mashed potatoes in this casserole. Too mushy for me. I think I would prefer the potatoes diced after being cooked instead of mashed. I actually felt like I wasted some homemade ingredients (enchilada sauce and salsa). Sorry for the poor review but I am glad other people enjoyed these.

These were really good. I made a few changes to the recipe - I smashed half of the can of pinto beans. I used only grated cheese - a Mexican blend. I did not use taco seasoning because I find it too salty - instead I threw in 2 teaspoons each of cumin and chili powder. I added a clove of garlic - diced. I used green enchilada sauce which was the absolute perfect topping. And I used fresh salsa that I had just made myself.

Loved this but I changed in just a bit. I added hamburger, corn and doubled the amount of enchilada sauce. I also eliminated the salsa. My hubby and daughter LOVED it and so did I. Yummy.l
