Weight Watchers Enchilada Casserole
In honor of National Margarita Day, I planned a Girl’s Night to celebrate the existence of margaritas. I figured it was important to balance out the tequila with some substance, so I threw together some Weight-Watchers friendly enchiladas.
I had to allot some extra points for the margaritas (obviously), so I wanted to make sure dinner wasn’t going to break the SmartPoints bank. Luckily, these 7-ingredient enchiladas are only 6 Smart Points per serving!
Weight Watchers Enchilada Casserole INGREDIENTS:
- 1 pack of 93% Ground Turkey
- 1 can of Rotel Diced Tomatoes and Green Chilies
- 12 extra-thin corn tortillas
- 1 can of Enchilada sauce
- 1 can of corn
- 1 cup of fresh (or frozen) bell peppers and 1 cup of onions
- 1 cup of shredded cheese
- seasonings (salt, pepper, taco seasoning) for meat and veggies
- Optional: a margarita on the side to keep you company
Weight Watchers Enchilada Casserole DIRECTIONS:
- Pre-heat oven to 375 degrees.
- In a large skillet, cook ground turkey over medium heat until brown. Stir in the can of diced tomatoes and chiles. Add your cup of bell peppers and onions. Add taco seasoning and salt/pepper. Set aside.
- Place four tortillas in the bottom of a greased 13×9 inch baking dish. Spoon a layer of enchilada sauce on top of the tortillas. Cover with one-third of the meat and veggie mixture. Top with 1/3 of the can of corn. Sprinkle with 1/3 the pack of cheese. Repeat layers three times.
- Bake, uncovered, 30 minutes or until bubbly.
It’s one of the quickest things to throw together when you’re expecting company! I feel like I’m cheating by even calling this a recipe. Because I basically just dump things in a pan and then go sit on my couch and drink my margarita.
Questions of the Day:
- Do you have any cheat recipes like this?
- Are you doing the Weight Watchers program? What’s one of your favorite low-point meals?
Ooo this looks so amazing. I like that it’s not overly fatty either. I am so going to make this!
I shared this with my Weight Watcher members! Can’t wait to try it, thanks!
It’s been so long since you’ve done a recipe! This looks great Div. ‘dump and drink’ are my favorite kind of recipes too. 😘
This looks delicious! I’ve been following the Weight Watchers program the past two months. I have a burrito bowl recipe that we make almost weekly.
I don’t do Weight Watchers, but I would still eat this! It looks delicious! 🙂
This looks amazing! I could eat the entire thing.
I just started doing weight watchers to lose the baby weight! This couldn’t come at a better time!
Mmmm! I’m or one for losing weight but my hubby might want to try this and it looks delish!
i don’t have a cheat day recipe (as i dont cook). But my cheat day treat is having a slice of cheesecake. Yummy!
I pinned this! I love enchiladas and these sound amazing. I thinki I will try them out on the family.
This sounds really good! I would definitely try this out. 🙂
This looks like something I can make ahead and freeze before my surgery next week. Thanks for the great and low fat recipe
This recipe looks delicious. I’m always looking for healthy recipes that actually taste good and I think this one is a winner!
This looks delicious (and easy! My favorite!!). I’d sub out the turkey for something veggie (or perhaps even fake meat crumbles) but def something to add to the dinner rotation menu 🙂 thank you for sharing!
This looks delicious! Hard to believe it’s WW-friendly! Plus, who can say no to margaritas?
This is a superb recipe.Love it that it’s not a calorie overload.Don’t like elaborate work I’m kitchen.
Love this balance!!! This enchilada casserole looks amazing, the perfect pairing up with a margarita!
This is a great idea! Using turkey was definitely a nice way to cut down on the fat. This could definitely be a good meal to bring to a party!
So that looks delish – more than 6 pts! Gonna have to PIN this recipe. 🙂
Looks really yummy. I am sure my mexican-cuisine-loving family will ask for seconds (and thirds). Using ground turkey did reduce the amount of fat in this dish. I’m trying out this recipe.
I’m currently not doing Weight Watchers. This recipe looks delicious, though. I know my family would love to try it.
Yum! Looks delicious. Easy to make. Healthy! And you added my favorite drink MARGARITAS! I’d say that’s the perfect meal right there!
This looks sooooo good! I love Mexican food!
This sounds delicious! Enchiladas are so yummy and this healthy alternative looks so good.
Ohhh that sounds so yummy. It looks great! I love the idea of pairing it with a margarita too 😉
This is the second casserole I’ve seen on blogs today!!!! I approve!! 🙂
Yummmm looks great. Im gonna try it too with Margaritaaaaa.
Have a great weekend:):)
Love you sweets for sharing such incredible recipes with calorie count.
Yum! I love enchiladas but have never had them with Turkey. I would definitely go for the margarita on the side 😉
I love simple recipes! This sounds delicious and so easy to customize. Thanks!
Interesting recipe. I am a big fan of Mexican food especially homemade ones. Thanks for sharing this.
Aren’t enchiladas awesome! They’re always so easy to put together and they’re packed with flavor! It’s the perfect meal for get togethers.
I love that you made this diet-friendly because I’ve been following a diet for weeks now. I’m definitely keeping this recipe! It’s packed with flavor!
What a great idea! Looks delish. I haven’t made enchiladas in awhile, need to add them back into rotation!
Wow! this recipe is so quick! I’m a horrible cook, so my favorite cheat recipe is scrambled egg with cheese…lol!
This sounds delicious, and I’m not even on weight watchers! We do enchiladas every other week so I will have to give this a try!
Oh I will definitely be making this with a margarita on the side! I am on weight weatchers now (thanks a lot, winter weight) so I love this recipe! Looking forward to trying it this weekend.
Noone here is on Weight Watchers. That sounds like a recipe my son would enjoy, and I like how quick and easy it is to prepare.
looks so yummy! i love enchilada’s! ill try this recipe!
Those look so yummy! I love how easy they are to put together!
I’m not on weight watchers but I love cooking healthy. This sounds great with turkey.
Ohhhhh can you come cook this recipe for me! It looks great! You did a fantastic job explaining how to cook it! I make something similar but I’m glad you showed a healthy way!
Yum!!! This is great! I love enchiladas but they feel so intimidating to cook. I’ll have to give these a shot (no pun intended). Yay margaritas!
This does look like an amazing dish. It is always good to find tasty, low calorie dishes to make for health conscious people.
I’ve never heard of this. I’m not normally a weight watchers kinda girl. I may just have to give this a try though!
This is definitely the perfect dish for a lazy weekend. Sadly, my stomach would disagree with me. 🙁
This sounds yummy! Weight Watchers recipes are always delicious, program or not!.
Enchiladas are so freaking good! I have to try this recipe.
