Tonight I agreed to make Evan a belated birthday dinner and to no ones surprise he wanted Mexican food. These turkey enchiladas were the perfect use of the leftover turkey he came back with. I found the recipe on Simply Recipes.
Mix together the chili powder, oregano, garlic powder, cumin, salt, flour (and ground cloves, but I left those out). In a pan, heat olive oil and add the spice mixture. Slowly mix in the chicken broth until the sauce is smooth.
Chop up the onion, garlic, jalapeno and cilantro.
Sauté the onions, garlic and jalapeno until soft. Take it off the heat and grated Monterey jack cheese, chopped turkey, black beans, cilantro, and 1/2 a cup of the enchilada sauce.
Coat tortillas in sauce and assemble enchiladas. Cover with cheese and bake these for 15 minutes at 350 degrees.
We topped these with sour cream and cilantro with a side of Spanish rice.
A bit time consuming but there are leftovers! Gotta love leftovers. Back to reality tomorrow, but it’s a short week before NYE

Looks delicious.
ReplyDeleteBut you should really use a sanitizing wipe on your phone- noticed it was on the chopping board in one of your pictures. Clean hands!
Clear eyes full heart!
