Terrific Turkey Enchiladas
Enchiladas are a favorite dish in my home, especially to our little girl, who calls them "laladas." This is a really tasty take on the classic southwestern dish. —Jenn Tidwell, Fair Oaks, California

I have made this many times & my whole family loves it! I always add a little bit of extra salsa & cook the turkey with some chopped spicy pepper like a jalapeno to give it a little more kick.
Great recipe! Not too hard to make and super flavorful! It's been a few years since I have made these beauties but as I scrolled through my saved recipes I found myself desperately desiring these lovelies.
These were excelant. I loved them.

Love this recipe. I have made this recipe a couple of times and am making it again tonight. Cannot wait for dinner tonight!
Everyone in the house loves this one, even the picky 5-year-old. There's rarely leftovers, and if there are, the husband and I fight over who gets to take them to work the next day.
I've made this recipe a few times. Love the spices and taste, but to combat the dryness I add about a 1/2 cup to 1 cup of taco sauce to the turkey mixture. This definetely helped and tastes great.
I'm always looking for new recipes to shake up my weeknight dinner rut. This one is a keeper! I can't wait to make it again!
I think the reason these won a contest is because they are unique. My husband and I liked them OK, but not enough for me to bother to make again. As far as the topping goes, it was unusual but not at all objectionable. We had these with guacamole on the side, which really helped with the dryness and made the dish more tasty overall.
Loved the cilantro sauce on top very tasty.
