This recipe makes one stack, which can be divided into two appetizer servings.
For best results, ensure the refried beans are warm before spreading to help the cheese melt evenly.
If you cannot find crisp-fried tortillas, you can fry regular flour tortillas in oil until golden and crispy, then drain on paper towels before assembling.
