Do you need a quick and tasty meal sure to satisfy the hungriest teenagers?  Look no further…these Baked Turkey Enchiladas are a real crowd pleaser that can be made up to one day ahead. Serve with a spinach or tossed green salad and a lower-fat salad dressing. If you are short on turkey you can substitute cooked chicken or canned tuna.

3 cups (650 mL)          cubed cooked turkey
1 10 oz (284 mL)        can cream of chicken soup (half fat or regular)
2 cups (500 mL)          shredded Cheddar cheese, divided

1 340 g pkg                 small flour tortillas (10 per package)

2. Combine turkey, soup, 1 cup (250 mL) cheese, chilies, sour cream, red pepper and
cilantro (if using).
3. Spread ½ cup (125 mL) of salsa in the bottom of each casserole dish.
