ENCHILADA SAUCE
Note: This recipes has received several (local) rave reviews. Really.

Saute onion, pepper, celery and parsley in oil. Add vegetables and cook, covered until tender. Add cornmeal, seasonings, and beans. Fill tortillas with generous ⅓ cup vegetable mixture and roll to form enchilada. Place enchiladas in single layer in baking pan. Cover with sauce. Top with cheese. Heat in oven for 20-30 minutes. Serves 6-8
