After that, Rach adds in some diced tomatoes, black beans, and green chiles to give the dish some extra flavor and freshness.
Once the filling is ready, Rachael rolls up some corn tortillas and places them seam-side down in her cast-iron skillet. She then pours the tomato sauce over the top of the enchiladas and sprinkles it with a generous helping of shredded cheese. After that, she pops the whole thing in the oven for just a few minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

This gives the brownies a delicious, salty-sweet taste and a satisfying crunch with every bite.
Once the brownies are ready to go, Rachael pours the batter into a greased 9x13" baking dish and tops it with even more crushed chips. Then, she bakes the brownies in the oven until they're gooey and delicious.
Throughout the episode, Rachael shares tips on how to cook efficiently and make the most of your ingredients.
