You can use the leftovers into burritos by adding few extras such as extra salsa or other condiments, such as sour cream or guacamole!! 
My apologies. This is definitely not the best picture ever. It was taken with the sidekick phone camera at dinnertime today. I saw this recipe in the Food & Wine magazine, with the photo accompanying the article food styled to perfection. Each bean was meticulously placed, and the enchilada stack was a veritable tower. In contrast, my stack looks humble indeed. The recipe in the Food & Wine magazine was a bit lengthy and complicated. I decided to make some changes to make this into something not so complicated. It is very, very good. You can serve this with some salsa and sour cream on the side if desired.
