- StepIn a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Slowly whisk in the flour and milk. Allow to cook for 5 minutes to thicken (not boil). Add diced green chilies, oregano, salt and pepper. Simmer for 5 minutes and remove from heat.
- StepIn a large skillet, melt the butter and add the red onion, jalapeño and garlic. Cook for 3 minutes until soft. Add ground meat to the pan and sauté until fully cooked. Stir in green chilies and black beans. Cook for 2 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly. Stir in cream cheese and both grated cheeses. Reserve about 3/4 cup of cheese for the final top layer before baking.

Fill each tortilla with 1/2 cup of the enchilada mixture, rolling them tightly and placing them seam-side down in the dish. Pour the sauce over the top of the enchiladas. Sprinkle with cheese, cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes.
