Enchiladas are classic comfort food. Who doesn't love them? This Rocco recipe comes in at around 300 calories, while normal enchiladas are around 1000 calories. That's why it's comfort food. :)
The recipe calls for pre-made black bean dip. I looked both at Whole Foods and Market Basket and I couldn't find anything. So, I looked up a black bean dip recipe, and made my own. I simply used one can of black beans, garlic powder, cumin, coriander, onion powder, and some fresh lemon juice. I also threw in some low fat sour cream. All of this was food processed.
So, after the bean dip was done, I grilled up the turkey meat. Once that was done, I poured the dip in to the turkey and cooked that for a bit. I then build the enchiladas, put them in the oven, and in 12 minutes, they were done.
One tweak that I made besides the bean dip was that I used fresh salsa that I bought in the produce section, instead of the jarred salsa Rocco called for. I'm not sure I can ever buy jarred salsa, now that I know stores sell fresh salsa.
Anyway, my wife's reaction was "Wow!". Enough said, this recipe is a keeper.
A new home!
