2 tablespoons olive oil
Add onion, pepper, garlic and salt.
1 large onion, 1 red bell pepper, 2 teaspoons garlic paste, 1/2 teaspoon salt
Sauté for 5 - 8 minutes - my wok cooks it in 5.

Slather some refried beans on the tortillas.
1 cup refried beans, 8 flour tortillas
Add veggies and then a healthy serving of pulled pork on top.

Notes
Use as little or as much refried beans and pulled pork as you like.Helpful tips
You can use leftover pulled pork or make it fresh - either way is great.
If you can't make your own refried beans, use canned. When I use canned, I always add a little olive oil to the beans to thin them out.
Use fajita sized flour tortillas because they're best for making enchiladas.
I am using shredded cheddar both in the enchilada sauce and on the enchiladas because it was what I had on hand. But I do alternate between Mexican cheese blend and cheddar normally.
