This is basically cold refridgerated corn-tortillas simmered quickly in a bean broth (from leftover coooked pinto-beans in a generous amount of liquid), filled with fresh Mexican Cheese or refried beans, rolled up a little bit of broth ladled over and topped with a mixture of fresh cheese, minced onion and oregano.
Very fast, simple. No pictures I was in a hurry on Saturday which is when I made this for breakfast. Not my favorite dish but a good filling breakfast.
Not even sure if worth posting since it's such a simple home-style dish that a lot of people not familiar with this type of food would make but anyways here goes.

In Oaxaca enfrijoladas are made with black beans with white onion slices and queso fresca on top. Dried avocado leaves are added to the beans as they cook to give that hint-of-anise flavor. Here in Canada I use cow feta with enfrijoladas.
