To make this easy enchilada recipe, begin by preheating your oven to 375°F and greasing a 9 x 13 baking dish.

Place the diced onion in olive oil and cook until translucent. Then add the diced green pepper, minced garlic, chili powder, salt and pepper to the pot, sautéing for 3 minutes, or until the peppers are tender. Next, add the enchilada sauce, black beans, pinto beans, corn and chopped cilantro to the pot, bringing to a brief simmer.

Make the casserole by placing 5 tortillas in the bottom of the baking dish. Add half of the bean mixture on top and sprinkle half of the grated Cabot Vermont Sharp Cheddar Cheese on top. Make a second layer, starting with the tortillas, then topping with the bean filling and remaining cheese.

Cover with foil and bake for 15 minutes. Remove the foil and cook for an additional 5 to 10 minutes, or until the cheese is fully melted. Serve warm, garnished with your favorite enchilada toppings.
