Amber's Delectable Delights and then modified a little bit.

Ingredients
1/2 cup chili gravy, recipe below
6, 10" flour tortillas


Filling Ingredients
2 Cups Brown Rice cooked, as box Directs
1 can black beans, rinsed and drained (I used 2 Cups black beans from the bag, and let them soak all day)
1 cup Colby and Montery Jack Cheese
1/4 cup Fat Free sour cream

Topping Ingredients
1 cup chili gravy, recipe below
1/2 cup Colby Montery Jack, and a little Chedder

Directions
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Line bottom of 9 x 13 pan with 1/2 cup chili gravy.
3. In a medium bowl mix shredded chicken, beans (I smashed mine a bit, I seem to have slight texture issues with whole beans), cheese, and sour cream.
4. Lay out one tortilla* and place 1/2 cup of filling mixture down the center. Fold up tortilla tucking in the ends and rolling into a cylinder. Place enchilada into pan, seam side down, and repeat process until all the filling mixture is gone.
5. Top enchiladas with chili gravy and cheese.
Cover the pan with foil and bake at 350 for 25 minutes. Remove foil and bake 5 additional minutes. Serve with a "dollop of daisy" aka sour cream. :)
