Ingredients

1 pound ground turkey
1 large onion, chopped
Salt and pepper to taste
1 29-ounce can enchilada sauce
1 29-ounce can (or 1 quart) canned tomatoes
1 14-ounce jar salsa
1 package whole wheat tortillas
Monterrey Jack or Mozzarella cheese, grated
Salsa, optional
Ranch dressing, optional


Directions

In a frying pan, brown the turkey and onion with salt and pepper to taste. Add enchilada sauce, tomatoes and salsa. Cook at medium temperature until sauce is heated. Soften a tortilla by dipping it into the sauce mixture, and lay it in a 9-by-13-inch pan. With spoon, fill tortilla with about 1/2 cup of sauce-meat mixture, add grated cheese and roll up. Continue until casserole pan is filled — about 10 tortillas. Pour remaining sauce-meat mixture over the top and add grated cheese.

Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes. Serve hot with shredded lettuce, and a little salsa and ranch dressing if desired.
