Ingredients
- 1 tbsp avocado oil
- 1 medium yellow onion diced
- 1 lb ground turkey (or 2 cups leftover shredded turkey)
- 1 tsp chili powder
- 1 tsp cumin
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- ½ tsp oregano
- ¼ tsp salt
- 2 cups homemade enchilada sauce divided
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese divided
- 8 large flour tortillas (I used Carb Balance Tortillas)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°. Heat avocado oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the onion is translucent.
- Add the ground turkey to the skillet and cook until browned, crumbling as you go, OR add the leftover shredded turkey and cook 1-2 minutes, until warm.
- Add the chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, garlic powder, oregano, and salt. Stir everything together, cooking for 2 minutes.
- Add ½ cup of the enchilada sauce and ½ cup of the shredded cheese, stir to combine. Remove from heat and set aside.
- Spread ½ cup of the enchilada sauce into an even layer in a 9x13 pan. Fill each tortilla with the turkey mixture, then roll tightly and place seam-side down in the baking dish.
- Top with remaining 1 cup enchilada sauce and remaining ½ cup shredded cheese. Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted. Serve with your favorite enchilada toppings!
