Step 1
Preheat oven to 375°F. Spread 1/2 cup of the enchilada sauce on the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish.
Step 2
Warm the 8 tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat for 30 seconds per side, until soft and pliable.
Step 3
Fill each tortilla with 1/4 cup of the shredded cheese, roll tightly, and place seam-side down in the prepared dish.
Step 4
Pour the remaining enchilada sauce over the rolled tortillas, spreading to cover them evenly.
Step 5
Sprinkle the remaining 1 cup of shredded cheese over the top. Bake until the sauce is bubbly and the cheese is melted, about 15 minutes.
Step 6
While the enchiladas bake, heat the refried beans in a small saucepan over medium-low, stirring occasionally, until hot, about 5 minutes.
Step 7
Serve the enchiladas with a scoop of refried beans, a dollop of sour cream, and a lime wedge on the side.
Step 8
Optional: add chopped cilantro or a pinch of chili powder on top for extra flavor.
