Instructions
Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
In a large skillet, heat a drizzle of oil over medium heat. Add the bell pepper and onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
Add the black beans to the skillet and season with chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.
Warm the tortillas in the microwave for 15-20 seconds, to make them pliable.
Spoon about 2 tablespoons of the black bean mixture onto each tortilla. Roll up the tortillas and place them seam-side down in a 9x13 inch baking dish.
Pour the tomato sauce over the enchiladas and sprinkle with shredded cheese.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Garnish with fresh cilantro, if desired, and serve hot.
