Turkey Enchilada Casserole image

Make turkey enchilada casserole recipe with leftovers. This gluten-free enchilada casserole recipe can be made with shredded chicken or pork.

Provided by Anne-Marie Nichols

Categories     Dinner

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 cups shredded turkey
3 cups enchilada sauce (gluten free - homemade or store-bought)
1 15.25-ounce can corn, drained
1 14.5-ounce can diced tomatoes, drained
Cooking spray
26-30 small corn tortillas
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Chopped cilantro or flat-leaf parsley for garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • Place shredded turkey, 1 1/2 cups enchilada sauce, corn, and diced tomatoes in a bowl. Mix thoroughly.
  • Spray two 9 × 13 pans with cooking spray.
  • Fill tortillas with about 2 generous tablespoons of filling, roll up, and place in pan. (You'll need to have two enchiladas per horizontal row.) When you've used up half the tortillas, start on the second pan.
  • If you have leftover filling, add the remaining 1 1/2 cup enchilada sauce to it. Then pour half the sauce over one pan, then the remaining enchilada sauce over the other dish.
  • Lightly sprinkle each dish with the grated cheese.
  • Bake at 350 degrees F for about 20 minutes until edges are crispy. Garnish with chopped cilantro or parsley if you wish before serving.
