In a separate pan, sauté the finely grated carrots (3) in a small amount of oil. Add two cloves of garlic and 1 tsp cumin. Sauté until carrots are well cooked. Add four cups of chicken broth and bring to a boil. After boiling, reduce to simmer and add a preparation of two tbsp of corn starch that has been dissolved in 1/2 cup of water.

In a separate pan add 1 can pinto beans and 1 can refried beans. Stir and heat.
In a separate pan sauté the onion until transparent and transfer it to a paper plate then sauté the green pepper and transfer to a paper plate. Then sauté the sliced mushrooms and transfer to a paper plate.
Now take each tortilla and slightly moisten each one with a small amount of water. Put six tortillas on a paper plate in the microwave for 30 seconds.
Pour about two cups sauce in the bottom of a 9x13 baking pan. Take one tortilla and line it with 1 tbsp beans, and a small amount of onions, pepper, mushroom and cheese. Roll the tortilla and place seam side down into the sauce. Continue above process until all 24 shells have been filled and placed in the sauce. Now pour the rest of the sauce over the entire dish and then top with more grated cheese and then top with salsa. Bake at 350º for 30 minutes. Serve with extra salsa and sour cream on the side.
