TURKEY ENCHILADAS WITH BLACK BEANS AND CORN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
• Sauté the diced onion over medium-high heat in the olive oil in a large skillet until softened and starting to brown (about 3 minutes).
• Add the minced garlic (2 cloves) and ground turkey (1 lb.), along with kosher salt and black pepper. Continue cooking over medium-high heat, breaking up the turkey into small pieces and stirring consistently, until turkey is just cooked through (about 5 minutes).
• Turn the heat down to medium-low and add the black beans and corn. Stir and heat until ingredients are warmed through (about 1-2 minutes).
• Add 1/4 cup of the enchilada sauce to the turkey mixture and stir together. Turn off heat.
• Meanwhile, wrap the flour tortillas (10) in a damp paper towel and microwave for 30 seconds to a minute, to warm them up. This will make them more malleable and easier to roll.
• Spread 1/4 cup of the enchilada sauce on the bottom of a 9x13 baking dish. Fill each tortilla with about 1/3 cup of the turkey mixture (just estimate, it doesn't have to be perfect), along with about 2 tablespoons of the shredded cheese. Fold the tortilla over to overlap the two sides, and place each seam-side down in the prepared baking dish.
• If you have any leftover filling, just stuff along the ends of the prepared enchiladas in the baking dish (or use it for another purpose).
• Cover the center of the enchiladas with the remaining 1 cup of enchilada sauce, and top with remaining cheese.
• Bake covered with foil at 375 degrees for 20 minutes. Uncover and bake for 10 more minutes, until cheese is fully melted and ends of enchiladas are starting to brown a bit.
• Serve topped with diced avocado, red onion, fresh cilantro, and sour cream, if desired.

TURKEY BLACK BEAN ENCHILADAS

Steps:

• Prepare the filling: Heat olive oil in a sauté pan over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and jalapeños and cook until the onions are translucent, about 3 to 4 minutes. Add the garlic and cook a minute more. Remove from heat. Place onion mixture in a medium mixing bowl. Mix in the cooked turkey meat, the beans, 1 cup of the grated cheese, 1/4 cup of chopped cilantro, 2 tablespoons lemon or lime juice, and 1/2 a cup of the enchilada sauce. Add 1 to 2 teaspoons of salt, or more to taste. Set aside.
• Sprinkle with lime juice, serve with garnishes: Sprinkle with a little more lime or lemon juice before serving. Serve with chopped red onion, chopped avocados, fresh cilantro, sour cream or crema fresca, and thinly sliced iceberg lettuce that has been dressed with vinegar and salt (no oil).

SOUTHWEST BLACK BEAN AND CORN ENCHILADAS

Steps:

• Heat oil in a pan until it shimmers.
• Add the onion and bell pepper and cook for about thirty seconds.
• Add the garlic, cumin and mexican oregano and cook until the onions and peppers are really soft.
• Add the salsa and black beans and cook until heated through.
• Using a potato masher, roughly mash the black beans so that some are broken and some are whole.
• Add the corn and cook until heated through.
• Stir in the sour cream.
• Spray a 9 X 13" casserole pan with cooking spray.
• Spread about a 1/2 cup of the enchilada sauce over the bottom of the casserole dish.
• Spoon the black bean mixture evenly in the center of the tortillas.
• Roll the tortillas up leaving the ends open, and place them seem down in the casserole dish. When I made this I got 6 pretty well stuffed tortillas and it almost totally filled my baking pan.
• Pour the rest of the enchilada sauce over the enchiladas, and use more or less to suit your liking.
• Cooking times vary. If you make this dish ahead of time and put it in the fridge and it cools down all the way I cover it with foil and put it in a 350 degree oven for 30 minutes, and then uncover it and sprinkle the cheese all over it and return it to the oven for another 15 minutes or until it's bubbling and heated through. If you make the bean mixture and stuff the tortillas immediately you won't have to bake it for as long, 10 minutes at 350 degrees uncovered and then sprinkle the cheese over and bake for another 10 minutes and that should do it. Since everything has already been cooked the key here is just getting it heated through.
• Serve topped with your favorite enchilada toppings.
• Enjoy!
