SATURDAY NIGHT CHICKEN, CHEESE AND REFRIED BEAN ENCHILADAS
Lots of fun to make and especially eat! I am a vegetarian, so I have substituted vegetarian "chicken" in this recipe and it was fabulous, but if you are a meat-eater you can use the same amount of real chicken instead with the same delicious outcome. I also used a combination of mozzarella and cheddar cheeses because Mexican cheeses aren't available to me here in England but if you would prefer monterey jack or other Mexican cheeses go right ahead and use them instead. These were soooooooo good. Enjoy!

REFRIED BEAN AND CHEESE ENCHILADAS
Very yummy! I grew up making these with my mom and sisters, and everyone I knew loved them! They're easy to make and incredibly tempting! Add chicken or cilantro if you like. I suggest pairing it with easy-to-make boxed Mexican rice.
