Day 27: A Recipe

I know I've already posted one recipe, but we really enjoyed this one last night and I think it's a little more interesting than the next suggested 30 day challenge posting of "what's in my purse"!  Anyway, it's another eat-clean recipe. Just so you know, I liked it better the first night- the next day the tortillas were a bit soggy.


Enchiladas

Ingredients

• 1.5 lbs Ground Chicken (I used ground turkey)
• 6 Whole Wheat Tortillas
• 1 Jalapeno, diced
• 1 Onion, diced
• 1 Garlic Clove, pressed
• 1 Green Pepper, diced
• 1 Cup Mushrooms, Diced
• 4 Cups Spinach, chopped or torn
• Taco Seasoning*
• 1 Cup Greek Yogurt
• 1 Cup Cottage Cheese
• Plain Tomato Sauce
• Sliced Black Olives
• Sliced Avocado
• Green Onions, Chopped

Instructions

Preheat Oven to 350 Degrees

In Medium Skillet add Chicken, Onion, Garlic, Jalapeno Pepper, and Green Bell Pepper and saute until browned. 
Add Mushrooms to meat mixture.
Add Spinach to meat mixture (heat until wilted) mix well. 
(I had some zucchini so I chopped it up small and threw it in too)                                                                                                                        

In Medium Bowl mix greek yogurt with cottage cheese and add Taco Seasoning (recipe at the bottom), stir until well blended.

In baking dish put enough tomato sauce to cover bottom of the dish. In each tortilla place a spoonful of meat mixture and a spoonful of cheese mixture. Roll tortillas and place seam side down. Cover tortillas with tomato sauce, and any remaining cheese / meat.

 Bake at 350 for 20 minutes or until hot and bubbly

Remove from oven and sprinkle with sliced black olives, green onion, and sliced avacado.

1/4 teaspoon onion powder
