Happy Cinco de Mayo!

Happy Cinco de Mayo!

To help you celebrate (the healthy way) I cam across a HEALTHY version of Chicken Enchiladas that are 21 Day Fix approved!

Chicken Enchiladas | What you’ll need:


1 Red container shredded chicken (braise or roast your own chicken breast and shred it yourself)
1 tsp 21 Day Fix southwest seasoning
2 – 6″ corn tortillas
1 Green container baby spinach (optional)
1 Green container homemade enchilada sauce 
1 Blue container shredded cheese
1 Orange container sliced black olives (optional)

What you’ll do:


1. Add shredded chicken, seasoning, and spinach to small frying pan with 1/4 cup of water and simmer together until spinach is wilted and seasoning coats chicken.
2. Soften tortillas in microwave for 15 seconds.
3. Roll each tortilla with half of chicken mixture.  Place in oven safe baking dish.
4. Pour Enchilada sauce over top of tortillas in dish
5. Sprinkle with cheese and olives
6. Bake for 10-12 minutes at 350 degrees, or until cheese is melted and enchiladas are heated through.
7. Enjoy!

Counts for 2 enchiladas (made with optional ingredients) – 1 Red1 Orange1 Yellow2 Green1 Blue.  (I also count 1/2 tsp for the coconut oil used in the sauce).

This recipe is easy enough to make a single serving, or a whole batch with no extra work.  The hardest part is making the enchilada sauce, and even that isn't very hard.   

You could make a large batch of these and portion them out for lunches, or serve them to your family for dinner.  No one will know they are eating healthy!  Just be cautious about sticking to your portions.
