I always tell myself that I will make time to post my favorite recipes on here, but I guess having a whole night & morning to myself while the kids are away with Daddy camping is what it takes to make it really happen!
This is a pretty healthy mexican dish that I first tried while visiting my friends Jenny & Brad. I thought it was yummy & easy, so it's a new favorite for me.
1 lb all natural ground turkey
small jar organic salsa
1 box frozen spinach
1 box fat free cream cheese
1 pkg taco seasoning
corn tortillas
several handfuls of Mexican blend shredded cheese
1 can enchilada sauce
Brown turkey & drain. Add taco seasoning according to package directions (usually adding 3/4 c water). Add defrosted & drained spinach, cream cheese, & salsa - cook over med/low heat until blended & melted. Spoon mixture into tortillas & place into sprayed casserole dish. Top w/ enchilada sauce & shredded cheese. Bake at 350 until cheese melts - about 15 minutes.
Here's my added two cents... if I'm shopping that week at walmart the only organic salsa they carry is Pace picante sauce - I use about 1/2 of the 16 oz jar. I use McCormick's taco seasoning which contains no MSG. I don't completely drain the spinach & use that water in place of adding water to the taco seasoning. My mom likes to top these w/ some queso instead of enchilada sauce/shredded cheese & she says that they are great that way. I'm trying them tonight w/ whole wheat tortillas made in the Central Market bakery - I think that will be a yummy substitution too. Enjoy!
