Using the slice side of your cheese grater or a knife, cut thin slices of Monterey Jack cheese. Cut the slices into thin strips. These will be the mummy bandages.
Place two olive slices onto each enchilada for eyes. Then lay strips of cheese across each enchilada, criss-crossing them to look like bandages.
Bake for 20 minutes or until bubbly. Serve with a side of black beans, topped with cotija cheese crumbles.
