Turkey and Black Bean Enchiladas

Adapted from SkinnyTaste.com

Ingredients

1 lb ground turkey

15.5 oz can black beans, drained

4.5 oz can diced green chilies, undrained

14.5 oz can diced tomatoes

2 cloves garlic

1/4 c chopped onion

1/4 c chopped cilantro

2 tsp cumin

Salt

Tortillas

Mexican cheese

Can/bottled enchilada sauce

Directions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Spray a 13x9 inch baking pan with non-stick cooking spray. Set aside.

In a large skillet, brown the turkey and season with salt. When the turkey is brown, add onion, cilantro, cumin, tomatoes, beans, and chilies. Mix well, cover with a lid and simmer on low for 20 minutes. Remove lid and simmer another 5-10 minutes so the liquid can reduce.

Warm tortillas so they are pliable. Fill each tortilla with 1/2 c of enchilada mixture and put seam side down into your pan. Repeat until the baking dish is full. Top with enchilada sauce and cheese. Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden and bubbly. Allow to cool for a few minutes before serving.

Greek Layer Dip with Pita Chips

I made this for a church holiday potluck and it was HIT!!!! I didn't want to bring cookies or treats because I figured everyone else would. I needed a lovely savory dish that would impress and be delicious! This was it! I will definitely be making this for other potluck type events in the future. It's especially easy because you're only cooking one part and the rest you just assemble!

*Note: If you don't have a trifle dish (you should buy one) then use a nice glass bowl where you can see the layers.
