Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Saute ground turkey in oil with onion, bell peppers, and spices until turkey is cooked (about 5 to 6 minutes).
Combine cooked turkey mixture with black beans, 3/4 cup of cheese, and 1 cup of enchilada sauce and mix together.
Place 1/4 cup of the enchilada sauce into the bottom of your 9x13-inch pan (or like casserole dish.) Begin to assemble enchiladas.
In the center of the tortilla, place about 1/2 cup of the meat mixture.
Roll the tortillas tightly to secure the filling, then place the seam-side down in the casserole dish on top of the enchilada sauce.
Continue until all tortillas and ingredients used.
Pour remaining enchilada sauce over tortillas and top with the rest of cheese.
Bake for 30 to 35 minutes or until internal temperature is 165 degrees F. Let cool before serving.
Notes
Feel free to swap out the ground turkey for your preferred meat of choice (lean beef or chicken also work well in here!)
If you are plant-based, swap in cooked lentils or tofu for the meat.
For a gluten-free option, use corn tortillas over the flour. Be sure to warm them prior to rolling to prevent cracking.
