Cheese Enchiladas with red chile sauce adapted from eatingwell recipe

Ingredients:

Red Chile Sauce:
1/2 cup chopped white onion
1 clove garlic, minced
1/2 cup mild/medium/hot chile powder (whatever you prefer)
2 cups vegetable broth
1 cup water
1/2 tsp dried oregano

Enchiladas:
1 15 ounce can nonfat refried beans
2 tbsp nonfat plain yogurt
12 6-inch corn tortillas
2 cups shredded reduced fat mexican cheese, divided
1/4 cup chopped white onion, plus more for garnish

Preparation:

1. To prepare sauce: Spray medium saucepan with pam and heat over medium heat. Add 1/2 cup onion; cook, stirring, until they soften, about 1 minute. Stir in garlic and continue cooking until the onion is translucent and soft, about 2 minutes. Stir in chile powder, broth, water and oregano. Bring to boil. Reduce heat to a simmer and cook until thickened and reduced by 1/3, about 20 minutes. (sauce should be thick enough to coat spoon lightly)

2. To prepare enchiladas: Preheat oven to 400. Coat 7x11 inch baking dish with pam.

3. Combine beans and yogurt in a small bowl.

4. Spread about 1/4 cup sauce in baking dish. Arrange 4 tortillas in the dish, overlapping them to cover bottom. Top with half the bean mixture, using back of spoon to spread thin. Scatter 2/3 cup cheese and 2 tbsp onion on top of the beans. Top with 1/3 of the remaining sauce, 4 tortillas, the remaining bean mixture, 2/3 cup cheese and 2 tbsp onion. Spread half of the remaining sauce on top and cover with the remaining 4 tortillas. Top with remaining sauce and the remaining 2/3 cup cheese.

5. Bake the enchiladas until hot and bubbling, about 15-20 minutes. Let stand 5 minutes before serving. Serve with additional chopped onion, if desired.
