Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 °F.

- Heat a non-stick pan with a little cooking spray over medium heat and cook ground turkey and onion in fajita seasoning mix. Once turkey is cooked mostly through, add in spinach and cook until wilted.
- In a bowl, whisk together the flour and almond milk. Then add in the sour cream, yogurt, green onion and elote seasoning to make a sauce. Set half aside to use as topping. Add ground turkey and vegetable mixture to the sauce.
- Spoon ground turkey mixture on tortillas and roll them seam down into an ungreased casserole dish. You can also add some shredded cheese into each tortilla before rolling if you'd like.
- Spoon the rest of your sauce over top of the tortillas. Sprinkle diced tomatoes, shredded cheese, and salsa verde over the enchiladas. Ensure each tortilla is well covered.
- Bake your Healthy Ground Turkey Enchiladas uncovered for 25 minutes.
- Remove from oven and garnish with more tomato, salsa verde, sriracha or queso, and fresh avocado. Enjoy!

Notes
After filling each tortilla, roll it up and place it face down so the seam is on the bottom of the dish. This will ensure the enchiladas stay together.
If you do not have sour cream or greek yogurt, I've also tested cottage cheese in replace of one of the ingredients and it is a 1:1 substitute!
I personally love my enchiladas covered in sauce, salsa, and cheese. Feel free to get creative with your toppings.
