Chicken (Turkey) Enchiladas

Thanksgiving is over. The food was great. Friends and family enjoyed each others company. Now, you wake up to a house full of leftovers. Warmed up turkey can only happen so many days before you get sick of it. Thought I would share some of our favorite recipes for using the leftovers. The first one to share is chicken (turkey) enchiladas.

1 package large tortillas (we use whole wheat)
4 cups chopped turkey
1-8oz bag shredded sharp cheddar cheese or mexican blend
16 oz sour cream (or plain low-fat yogurt)
1 banana pepper chopped (or 1 can diced chilies)
1 medium onion, diced
1 can cream of chicken soup
1 tsp dried cilantro (or 1 Tbls fresh)

Mix turkey, sour cream, banana pepper, onion and cilantro together in a bowl. Divide turkey mixture among tortillas. Sprinkle a little cheese on each (reserving 1/2 bag for top). Wrap up tortillas and put in greased 9x13 pan. Pour can of cream of chicken soup over the top making sure to cover all the tortillas. Sprinkle remaining 1/2 of cheese over top of soup. Cover and bake for 45 minutes at 350 degrees or until cheese is melted and bubbly.

You can also make a pan of these up and freeze them for later. Just simply thaw completely and cook according to the directions above.

Enjoy!
