I know the start to finish time seems daunting, but it’s not hard at all! It was a very simple hour. I had spatula in hand doing battle with the turkey meat in the skillet & was using my second hand to do battle with my busy body 10 month old who loves to eat dog food. If you like Mexican food, go for this recipe. They were amazing! We finished off all of them in much less time than it took me to make them & we were both disappointed that there weren’t leftovers.

These sound wonderful. I'll be giving them a try. Thanks for sharing. Blessings, SusanD
Ooh! That does sound good! I don't know if I could get Tom to eat something with spinach but it might be worth a try!
Hannah: Yeah, Todd doesn't eat anything green! lol So I just left that part out…He loves this meal!
I'd love to make my own enchiladas. So far I've only ever heated up frozen ones from Costco.
