CHEESY TURKEY ENCHILADA ONLY 189 CALORIES





Makes 8
2 cups shredded turkey breast
8 egg whites, beaten
2 green onions, thinly sliced diagonally
4 tablespoons cream cheese, room temp
1 1/2 cups shredded low fat Monterey Jack cheese
2 cups homemade Roasted Tomatillo Salsa or
2 cups jarred green salsa verde
1/2 cup cream
1/4 teaspoon seasoned salt (optional)
Preheat the oven to 350 F.  Coat a 7×11″ baking pan with cooking spray.
Make 8 “tortillas”:  Whisk the egg whites in a medium bowl until frothy.  Treat a 6″ nonstick skillet with cooking spray.  Pour 1/8 of the egg white mixture into the pan “crepe style” over low heat until cooked through. Carefully remove and set aside.
In a medium bowl combine the turkey, green onions, cream cheese, seasoned salt and 1 cup of Monterey Jack cheese.  Stir to mix thoroughly and set aside.  Stir the tomatillo sauce and cream together.
Divide the turkey mixture among the “tortillas” in a mound down the center.  Roll them up and place seam side down in the baking pan. Pour the creamy tomatillo sauce over all.  Sprinkle the remaining Monterey Jack cheese over the top.
Bake 20 minutes or until heated through and bubbly. Serve immediately and enjoy!
