Turkey Enchiladas

This is a favorite at our house.

1 1/2 lbs ground turkey
5 tsp taco seasoning (salt free is best)
onion, to taste (dehydrated or fresh)
1 can black beans, rinsed
1/3 C. greek yogurt, fat-free
15 oz can Green Chile Enchilada Sauce
10 oz can Red Enchilada Sauce
10 whole wheat tortillas (I like Maya brand, 70 cals/piece)
4 oz 75% reduced sharp Cabot cheese, finely grated (Wal-mart)

Brown the turkey with the taco seasoning and onion.  Stir in the black beans.  In a separate bowl, mix the green and red enchilada sauce with the greek yogurt.  Place 2 large spoon-fulls of sauce mix with the meat mix.  Evenly distribute the meat mix among the 10 tortillas, using about 1/2 cup of the meat mixture in each tortilla.  Roll up and place in a lightly greased 9x13 pan, with 8 in a row and 2 on the side.  Pour remaining sauce on top and sprinkle cheese over all of it.  Place in a 375 degree oven for 20 minutes or until heated through and the cheese is melted.  About 265 calories for 1 enchilada.  Serve with a salad and some veggies for a complete meal.  This freezes well in individual portions for lunches.  If you get the larger cans of enchilada sauce you can add the extra if desired.
