Not Your Ordinary Enchiladas

Why? Well, look at the first ingredient. Deli turkey!!!

I did not expect for these to be the BEST enchiladas I've ever had. These were perfect & healthier than the original!!!!!

I always read how so many of you love Mexican food. So, you'd be doing yourself a great culinary disservice if you didn't try these. They take 35 minutes, start to finish! I had these leftover for lunch the next day and they were just as awesome, re-heated in oven for 15-20 minutes.

3/4 lb turkey breast, sliced (from the deli), then chopped by you (I ordered Boars Head Ovengold roasted turkey)
1 (8 3/4 oz) can Fiesta corn
1 8 oz container reduced-fat sour cream plus more for serving
1 1/2 cups shredded reduced-fat (2%) Mexican cheese blend
2 tblsp chopped fresh cilantro
10 (6-inch) corn tortillas or 7 flour tortillas
1 10 oz can enchilada sauce
1 cup mild salsa (I used Paul Newman)

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Spray 13" by 9" baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. In large bowl, combine turkey, corn, sour cream, half of cheese & half of cilantro. Stack 5 tortillas on damp paper towel on microwave-safe dish; top with another damp paper towel. Microwave on High 30 seconds to soften.

Place about 1/3 cup turkey mixture on each tortilla & roll up tightly. Arrange in prepared baking dish, seam side down. Repeat with remaining tortillas & filling. I used flour tortillas which were bigger so I used more than 1/3 cup, maybe 50% more.

In bowl, stir enchilada sauce with salsa; pour over tortillas to cover. Top with remaining cheese & bake 15 to 20 minutes or until cheese melts & enchiladas are heated through. Sprinkle with remaining cilantro. Serve with sour cream.

My Thoughts:

Next time I will make both corn & flour. Since they were slightly bigger I was able to get 7 out of this recipe. I would not change a thing about this recipe, especially the turkey!!!!! Just order 3/4 lb sliced deli turkey & you chop it up at home! This is easier than having to shred a rotisserie chicken or cook ground meat & healthier & better than canned anything!
