Directions:
- Place 4 tortillas on a flat surface. Spread an even layer of refried beans onto each side facing up.
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 2 tablespoons of butter and melt. Add red pepper and red onion, saute until soft, about 5 minutes. Add the corn, red pepper flakes, cumin, salt, and pepper. Stir and saute for about 3 minutes longer. Transfer to a bowl and stir in cilantro.
