Enchilada Envy

Grab your sombrero and your favorite brand of corn tortillas. Our hot free diet recipe for enchiladas is low in calories, high in flavor and is sure to get the grumpiest dieter in the mood for doing the Mexican Hat Dance.

Enjoy the following for about 450 calories:

4 corn tortillas (200 calories)

1 small can or jar of enchilada sauce (green or red)

1 tiny onion, chopped and sauteed using cooking spray

1/2 cup of your favorite shredded cheese - or up to 200 calories. Using skim cheese allows the use of more cheese because lower calories equal more food for the calorie count.

Warm tortillas in microwave between two damp paper towels for just a few seconds. Length of time will depend upon the brand of microwave used, but ours generally takes about 15 seconds for 4 tortillas.

Next, dip each tortilla into enchilada sauce. Fill with a bit of cheese taking care to leave enough cheese to top the enchiladas. Add a few of the onions taking care to leave some for the top.

Roll each tortilla up enchilada-style and place into a small microwave-proof pan. Top with more sauce, the remainder of the chopped onion, then the rest of the shredded cheese.

Place into microwave and heat until cheese melts.
