Enchilada Casserole with Ground Turkey

July 27, 2012 | recipes, Uncategorized

 

Good morning! I don’t do this too often, but I have a recipe to share with you today! I have made it twice now and Bobby loves it. It’s easy, quick, and we usually have leftovers, which is a plus for me….no cooking the next night! I found a variation of it online but changed it up a bit to make it more to my liking. I am really picky and I even like this, so I think it would be a kid favorite as well. I am not a HUGE onion fan so I chop them up really tiny and don’t even notice them.

Enchilada Casserole with Ground Turkey

-Fills a 13×9 casserole dish, 30-35 minute cook time, 15 minute prep time

INGREDIENTS:

– one package of Jenni-O ground turkey

-one can of enchilada sauce ( I use mild)

-1/3 of an onion

– 6 flour tortilla shells (I use whole grain)

-cheddar cheese (1-1.5 cups)

-cooking spray

—————————————–

-Preheat oven to 350

-cook turkey according to package. drain

-chop and add onion, cook in pan with turkey 3-5 minutes

-heat 1/2 can of enchilada sauce in saucepan

-spray bottom of  casserole dish

-take one tortilla, dip one side in heated sauce in pan, put in center of casserole dish

-take second tortilla, tear in half, dip halves in sauce and put in bottom of the dish so bottom of the dish is covered

– take half of the cooked turkey/onion combo and put on top of tortillas

-Sprinkle a layer of cheese on top of turkey

-repeat steps of dipping tortillas and layering on top of first layer (one whole shell and one torn in half)

-pour the rest of the turkey/onion combo on the shells, add cheese on top

-take final two shells, dip in sauce and layer on top of mixture again

-pour remaining half of enchilada sauce on top of everything and top with cheese

-bake, uncovered, for 30-35 minutes

    Our top two recipes are turkey burgers and meat sauce. We add worchesteshire, egg whites, McCormic Hamburger seasoning, diced jalepenos, and Rouses Cajun seasoning to the meat to make the burger patties. The eggwhites are key to keeping them moist and in one piece on the grill. The meat sauce couldn’t be easier–brown meat in skillet with the trinity, drain, combine in pot with 1 jar of Emeril’s Homestyle marinara, add a little garlic powder and italian seasoning, simmer for an hour and serve with whole wheat pasta or over quinoa. It makes a thick sauce.

    Yum! I make something very similar but add chopped zucchini and black beans. Now you have me wanting it tonight, but pork is already in the slow cooker!

    You know, I’ve started making my enchiladas into more of a casserole too. Not as pretty perhaps, but so much easier.

    As you know, I don’t eat turkey. But you just reminded me of an enchilada/burrito recipe I have that I need to make again soon. Yum!

    All my ground turkey recipes are my fave (since sadly I can’t have ground beef). I really really love meatloaf, though.

We take her on these trips and cruises hoping she’ll soak in the adventure, the beauty, and maybe even the food from places different from where we live… but to her, nothing beats a corn dog and mac & cheese. 🧀 

And honestly, that’s the best reminder for us, that joy doesn’t have to be fancy, it just has to be yours. 🛳✨

YES I was dancing, eating mac and cheese from the YES I was dancing, eating mac and cheese from the kids menu, and singing “Let it Go” with a butter knife while wearing Mickey ears on our Disney cruise. 🚢 

When I was 12, I was worried a lot… worried about failing, scared of what people would think of me, and of not fitting in or being “cool”. 
I turned 40 this year and have been spending time trying to figure out exactly who I really am with all expectations stripped away. I don’t love the term “finding yourself”, but here I feel like it fits. ✨

Maybe finding yourself means going back to being 12.… and being myself without being scared. Heather at 12 would never believe this version of me… but I think she’d be proud. 💛✨

Emma Kate turned 11 last month during our sailing and we did so many birthday things! She got a ton of “happy birthday’s” from crew and guests to make it extra special. ✨

👉🏻For a link to the birthday ears she wore (they have lots of colors and variations!) comment “EARS” and I will send it to you!

IYKYK. I finally figured it out…the night before IYKYK. I finally figured it out…the night before we got off the ship. 😆

Not sure how this happened, but time snuck up on me and now I have an 11 year old. 🥹
We couldn’t think of a more fun place to celebrate that on Castaway Cay, Disney’s private island in the Bahamas.

She started the day with presents, then hours and hours in the sun on the island, followed by cake and singing at dinner, the tween club, and fireworks at sea! (They were for pirate night but we said they were birthday fireworks!) 

Happy birthday to the most fierce, kind, competitive, loyal, funny, and beautiful little girl I know. 🩷 Never change who you are and stop growing up so fast! So. Blessed to have the best title there is, Emma Kate’s mom. 💖
