I really liked the combination of these ingredients. I did find the green chilis a bit overpowering for the amount of beans. Next time I make this I will use one whole can of refried beans and one whole can of black beans and keep the amount of the other ingredients the same. I also used corn tortillas instead of flour which reduced the calorie and fat content. These were really tasty and I will be making it again soon. It made a really quick and easy lunch!
