If you like corn tortillas and a corn/tomato type base for chicken enchiladas, you'll love this.
I'm planning to substitute the following to take the sugar count/calorie count down a bit.
1 Can Stewed tomatoes - use instead 2-3 tomatoes fresh
Chipotle Chiles canned - 1-2 jalapenos fresh
whole green chiles - use 2-3 whole green chiles fresh
all purpose flour - whole wheat flour
Stick to low fat shredded cheese - cheddar, colby, jack, or mexican
Mexican spice blend - skip it and just put garlic powder, cumin, salt and pepper on your chicken
Instead of canned enchilada sauce, quickly mix up your own:
- 2-3 chopped tomatoes
- 1 jalapeno
- 2-3 whole green chiles
- 1 T lime juice
- 1 T of cilantro leaves
- 1/2 roasted red bell pepper
- 1 T Splenda
- 1 T chili powder
- 1/2 t cumin
- 1/4 t salt
Good Luck!!
