My Newest Favorite Easy Enchiladas

My 2 cents: First of all...you have to know that these Enchiladas are super simple and delicious to make. But I have added some optional ingredients that make them even better and heartier. So don't fret if you don't have everything...they'll still be yummy...but enjoy all the extra goodness if you do.

1/2 lb ground turkey
1/4 cup chopped onions (opt)
1 small can green chilies (opt)
1 small can tomato sauce
1 green or red pepper diced (opt)
1 can of corn (opt)
1 can of black beans and/or kidney beans (opt)
8 tortillas (corn, flour or OUR favorite...wheat)
2 cups shredded cheese
1 can mild enchilada sauce
1/2 cup sour cream (opt)
lettuce (opt)
Garnish: chopped green onions and/or black olives (opt)

In a large skillet, saute onions and brown turkey. Stir in green chilies, tomato sauce, pepper, corn, beans and 1 cup of shredded cheese. Place a spoonful of meat mixture in the center of each tortilla, roll tortilla up, and place in cookie sheet or casserol dish seam side down. Pour enchilada sauce over tortillas; sprinkle rest of cheese. Bake at 350 for 20-25 minutes or until bubbly and cheese is melted. Garnish however you want. And hey, feel free to serve it with sour cream and lettuce.
