Ground Turkey Enchiladas



one large or two small bell peppers
1/2 an onion (yellow or white)
1 tsp minced garlic

1 lb ground turkey
1 packet taco seasoning

8 flour tortillas (taco size)
1 small can meduim enchilada sauce
1 c shredded cheddar cheese

optional garnish: chopped scallions, cilantro or parsley


Filling (could make the night before): Saute peppers and onions in a little olive oil until tender. Add garlic, cook for one minute. Pour contents into a bowl. Use the same pan to brown the turkey. Cook turkey until no longer pink. Drain. Add taco seasoning contents and some water in the pan, stir and simmer for a few minutes. Add turkey to the bowl with the peppers and onions.

Assembly: Heat tortillas in the microwave (one minute on 50% power) so they are pliable. Preheat oven to 400 degrees and spray a 9x13 pan with non-stick spray. Lay out one tortilla at a time and fill with 1/3 cup of filling mixture. Roll tortilla and place seam side down. Pour enchilada sauce over the tortillas. Top with shredded cheese and garnish. Cook for 20 minutes or until the cheese is melted and the tortillas start to brown.
