This easy dish is full of flavor with its green chilis, fresh cilantro, garlic, and red peppers! And, if you’re not a cilantro fan, the dish is still wonderfully spicy without it. The low-fat Monterey Jack cheese saves you unwanted calories and fat. For added pizzazz, top with a dollop of fat-free sour cream.
6 corn tortillas
1 teaspoon olive oil
1/2 medium onion, chopped
1 small red bell pepper, chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
1 cup canned kidney beans with juice, coarsely mashed
1 14-oz can low-sodium whole tomatoes in juice, drained and chopped
1 4-oz can green chili and juice
1 tablespoon minced cilantro (optional)
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1 cup shredded low-fat Monterey Jack cheese
1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Spray an 8 x 8-inch pan with nonstick cooking spray. Warm the tortillas according to package directions.
2. In a medium nonstick skillet, heat the oil. Add the onion, bell pepper, and garlic; cook, stirring as needed, until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes.
3. In a medium bowl, combine the beans, tomatoes, chiles, cilantro, lime juice, and cumin. Add the onion mixture and stir until blended.
4. Cover the bottom of the pan with 3 tortillas; add half of the bean mixture, top with half of the cheese; layer with the remaining 3 tortillas, beans, and cheese. Bake covered until bubbly for 20 minutes. Remove cover and continue baking until cheese melts, about 5 minutes. Serve immediately.
