This healthy recipe comes from NDSU Extension Service.

Ingredients

• 1 (4 ounce) can chopped green chili peppers, drained

• 4 ounces lite cream cheese, softened

• 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin

• 2 cups chopped cooked turkey

• 8 (8 inch) flour tortillas

• 1 (16 ounce) jar salsa

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish. In a medium bowl, mix chili peppers, cream cheese, and cumin. Stir in chopped turkey. Place the tortillas in a microwave oven. Heat for 30 seconds to 1 minute, or until the tortillas are softened. Spread about 2 heaping tablespoons of the chili pepper mixture on each tortilla, and roll up. Place the rolled tortillas, seam-side down, in a single layer in the prepared baking dish. In a medium bowl, combine the salsa and beans. Spoon the mixture over the enchiladas. Sprinkle the top with cheese. Bake 20 minutes in the preheated oven, or until bubbly and lightly browned.
