Ground Turkey Enchiladas

Ground turkey lightens these tasty enchiladas. Feel free to use your favorite salsa, mild, medium, or hot. If you like more heat, add some jalapeno rings to your garnishes.

Prep Time: 20 minutes
Cook Time: 30 minutes
Total Time: 50 minutes

Ingredients:

1 pound lean ground turkey
2 cups chunky salsa or your favorite
1 package (10 oz) frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
2 teaspoons ground cumin, divided
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 package (8 oz) regular or light cream cheese, cubed
12 Flour tortillas (6-inch), warmed
1 can (14 1/2 oz) tomatoes, undrained, diced
1 cup (4 ounces) shredded cheddar cheese
Optional toppings: shredded lettuce, black olives, diced avocado or guacamole, sour cream, diced fresh tomatoes and green onions

Instructions:

In a large skillet, cook turkey until browned and no longer pink, breaking it up with a spoon. Add 1 cup of the salsa, the spinach, 1 1/2 teaspoons of the cumin, and the salt.

Cook and stir for about 5 minutes or until most of the liquid has evaporated. Add cream cheese, stirring just until melted.

Spoon about 1/3 cup filling down center of each warm tortilla; roll up and place seam-side down in a lightly greased 13-by-9-inch baking dish.

Combine tomatoes, remaining 1 cup salsa, and remaining 1/2 teaspoon cumin. Spoon over enchiladas. Bake at 350° for 20 minutes or until hot. Sprinkle with cheese; return to oven for about 5 minutes, or until cheese is melted. Top as desired.
