Don’t let the length of this recipe scare you—this meets the needs of both those in a hurry and those who want to take their time. You can make these enchiladas quickly with storebought sauce and meat substitute, or make both at home. Either way, these enchiladas are worth it.

Feijoada is a classic Brazilian dish, an all-day sort of dish that comes from the same family as French cassoulets and American baked beans.

The habit of serving sliced oranges with feijoada may seem unusual if you’ve never tried it, but the juicy tang of the citrus provides a refreshing contrast to the richness of the dish. It’s what really sets this recipe apart from a run-of-the-mill bean soup.
