• Repeat Step 2 until all tortillas are stacked, then microwave the entire stack on high for about 4 minutes and allow to cool.
• Place shredded cheese in a bowl (if using diced onions, mix them in with the cheese now).
• Lightly cover the bottom of a baking dish (mine is 13x9, I think) with some of the juice from the beans (This will prevent the tortillas from becoming stiff and chewy as they cook).
• Place a generous portion of the cheese/onion mixture onto a tortilla, then roll the tortilla like a cigar (not too tight though).
• Place into the baking dish, seam side down to prevent the enchilada from unrolling.
• Repeat until all tortillas have been stuffed, rolled and placed into the baking dish.
• Cover the enchiladas with the beans and any leftover cheese/onion mixture.
• Bake at 350 for 20-30 minutes, depending on your oven.
• Allow to cool for 5 minutes, top with any, all, or none of the optional toppings, and serve.
