-------- ------------ --------------------------------

1/2 cup dried kidney beans

1/2 cup dried navy beans

1/2 cup dried pinto beans

6 cups water

2 cloves garlic

1 small onion -- quartered

1 4.5 oz can chopped green chiles -- undrained

1 teaspoon chili powder

1 teaspoon ground cumin

1/2 teaspoon salt

2 10 oz cans enchilada sauce

12 6-inch corn tortillas

vegetable cooking spray

1 cup shredded Monterey jack cheese

 

Sort and wash beans. Place in a Dutch oven and cover with water 2 inches

above beans. Bring to a boil, cover, and cook 2 minutes. Remove from heat and

let stand one hour.

Drain beans and return to Dutch oven. Add 6 cups water; bring to a boil.

Cover, reduce heat, and simmer 1 hour or until beans are tender. Drain beans,

reserving 1/4 cup cooking liquid.

Position knife blade in food processor bowl. Drop garlic through food

chute with processor running and process about 3 second or until minced. Add

onion; pulse 3 times or until coarsely chopped. Add reserved 1/4 cup cooking

liquid, beans, chiles, and next 3 ingredients. Pulse 3 times or until mixture

is chunky.

Cook enchilada sauce in a small skillet over low heat until thoroughly

heated. Dip each tortilla in warm sauce to soften. Spoon about 1/3 cup bean

mixture down center of each tortilla. Roll up tortillas and place, seam sides

down, in a 13x9x2-inch baking dish coated with cooking spray. Pour remaining

sauce evenly over enchiladas.

Cover and bake at 350 ° for 20 minutes or until enchiladas are thoroughly

heated. Top with cheese; bake, uncovered, an additional 5 minutes or until

cheese is melted.
