I found this recipe for Turkey Enchiladas in Mom Knows Best by Gooseberry Patch. I adapted it just a little, but I really didn’t have to tweak it much. Everything in this cookbook is so yummy!

Use leftover turkey, use ground meat, use leftover chicken, skip the meat and use extra beans if you want a vegetarian option. Enchiladas take a little extra time to assemble, but they are so tasty, it’s worth it! Wrap the enchiladas and put them in a baking pan the night before. Refrigerate, and just bake them for dinner the next night. Dinner prep just got fast and easy!

Make it even easier by using some Freezer Rice, or make extra rice and freeze it for another busy night.

Top off the enchiladas with sour cream, salsa, even some extra cheese. (Because you can never have too much cheese!) Serve them up with a handful of tortilla chips, and dinner is ready.
