EASY LOW FAT CHICKEN ENCHILADA CASSEROLE



Easy Low Fat Chicken Enchilada Casserole image

This was an experimental meal, but when my guys tasted it, they said it was a winner. Very quick and easy, suitable for beginning cooks. You can embellish this basic version however you choose by adding chopped green chilies, black olives, etc. I like to add fresh lettuce, onions, tomatoes, and salsa on top at serving time. 1/8 of the casserole is 7 WW points. After obtaining calorie counts for each ingredient listed in the recipe from My Fitness Pal, the ENTIRE casserole comes in at 2200 calories. One serving would be 275 calories.
