EASY LOW FAT CHICKEN ENCHILADA CASSEROLE
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.

- To make the pulled-chicken filling, add all the ingredients to a slow cooker and set on high for 4 hours or low for 8 hours. When the chicken is done (you’ll notice a large amount of liquid in the slow cooker; this is normal), shred it with a fork until all of the liquid within the slow cooker is incorporated.
- To make the enchiladas, preheat the oven to 350°F. Coat the bottom of two 9 x 13–inch baking pans with a thin layer of the enchilada sauce.
- Microwave the tortillas for about 30 seconds to make them warm and flexible. Place one tortilla at a time on the prepared pan, spreading 1 heaping tablespoon of enchilada sauce evenly over the top of each, adding ¼ cup pulled chicken, and rolling it up. Place the fold sides of the enchiladas underneath, to keep the enchiladas from unraveling. Repeat this process with the remaining tortillas and filling.

- In a medium saucepan over medium heat, add oil and sauté garlic until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes. Add chipotle peppers, adobo sauce, tomato sauce, oregano, chili powder, cumin, broth, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 5-10 minutes. This will help thicken the sauce. Set aside until ready to use.
- Heat the olive oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Sauté onions and garlic until soft and translucent, about 4-5 minutes. Add chicken, corn, black beans, cilantro, chili powder, cumin and 1/2 cup enchilada sauce to the skillet. Stir to combine and cook for another 4-5 minutes. Remove from heat.
