How To Make It

Preheat your oven to 400°F. Spray a 9×11 glass baking dish with nonstick spray.
Preheat a large saucepan over medium/high heat with the olive oil.
Add your onion and garlic and sauté for a minute or two, or until fragrant.
Add in your ground turkey and cook until browned. Once it is browned, turn the heat down to medium.
Add in your Dan-O’s chipotle seasoning, garlic salt, onion powder, cumin, and beans. Mix until thoroughly incorporated and turn off the heat.
Pour 1/3 of the enchilada sauce on the bottom of the baking dish. Then add 4 carb counter street tortillas on top of the enchilada sauce.
Spread half of the meat/bean mixture on top of the tortillas, another 1/3 of the enchilada sauce, and then half of the cheese.
Add the remaining 4 tortillas on top, and repeat the steps with the remaining ingredients.
Bake for 20 minutes. Let sit 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving.
