1 can (15.5 ounces) pinto beans, drained and rinsed
1 cup prepared salsa (mild or medium)
8 ounces pepper Jack cheese, grated (about 2 cups)
Directions
Preheat oven to 425 degrees. In a food processor, combine cilantro, scallions, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper with as much spinach as will fit; pulse, adding remaining spinach in batches, until coarsely chopped.
Coat an 8-inch square baking dish with cooking spray. Lay 4 tortillas in bottom of dish (they will overlap slightly). Layer with half of beans, salsa, spinach mixture, and cheese; repeat with remaining ingredients, ending with cheese and pressing in gently.
Cover dish with foil; place on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake until bubbling, 25 to 30 minutes; remove foil, and continue baking until golden, 15 to 20 minutes more. Cool 5 to 10 minutes before serving.
We love this recipe! I agree that it could use more beans, and it was a little too cheesy for our tastes, so I will modify it next time I make it. I love how healthy it is with all the spinach. Very easy to make, too.
I am a college student, and if I could afford this than basically anyone can! Really great flavors. I was worried about the quantity of the spinach since I am not a huge fan of it. But the spinach
This was very good and very easy to make. I was a little concerned about the spinach flavor being overpowering but it's not. I used extra beans and salsa. Even out 8 year old like it.
I saw this a few years ago on tv and had to make it right away. Love mexican-style food! Surprised more haven't tried it. It is one of my favorites. It does freeze well. I do in single-serving portions. Use soy chorizo to give it a little kick.
Excellent flavor and easy to make. I agree with the other comments below. More beans and salsa, and sour cream on top is never a bad idea! I really liked the flavor of the spinach, cilantro, and scallion combination. This would be good to prepare a day before a party.
This was quite good, I think it needs more then just one can of beans and would try black beans next time. It also needs more than one cup of salsa, but otherwise it is easy to make.
This is a great meal--good for the vegetarian in the family, and hearty enough for everyone else. Yum Yum Yum!! I put in two cans of pinto beans, though. One can didn't seem like enough. I recommend doubling the recipe--great for leftovers or freezing.
I made this for dinner last night, the kids just loved it. They even went back for second serving. We have very busy afternoons and this a great meal to have ready. Yumm!
