- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a 9x13-inch casserole dish with cooking spray.

- Bake in the preheated oven until sauce is bubbling and cheese is melted, 35 to 40 minutes.
Notes
You can use flour tortillas instead of corn, and green enchilada sauce instead of red. For a vegetarian version, use refried beans that do not contain lard.
