    From the Test Kitchen

    To fill soft flour tortillas, you’ll make a hearty filling of black beans, zucchini, poblano peppers, and spiced rice, then top it all with rich guajillo chile sauce and melty monterey jack before baking. The bold flavors are perfectly tempered by finishing dollops of cooling sour cream.
