Creamy Cheesy Turkey Enchiladas
Turkey and sweet potato tortillas bake under salsa verde, cream, and Jack cheese for a cozy, low-fuss casserole.

Ingredients
- 1 Tbsp butter
- 1 cup finely diced onion
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
- 4 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
- 3/4 cup cooked sweet potato
- 2 1/2 cups chopped cooked turkey meat
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup prepared tomatillo salsa verde
- 1 1/2 cups grated Monterey Jack cheese
- 8-10 flour tortillas, about 8-inches wide
- 1/3 cup sliced black olives
- 2 Tbsp sliced green onions, including greens
- A 9x13-inch casserole dish
Directions
- Set a small saucepan over medium high heat and melt the butter. Add the finely diced onion and cook it until it turns golden with a little browning at the edges. Stir in the ground cumin and let it cook with the onions for 1 minute more, then take the pan off the heat and let the mixture cool.
- In a medium bowl, use your clean hands to combine the cream cheese, sweet potato, cooked chopped turkey, cooled onions, and 1 teaspoon of salt. It should come together into a soft, hearty filling.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter the inside of a 9x13-inch casserole dish. Take 1 flour tortilla and spoon about 1/4 to 1/3-cup of the filling into the middle, smoothing it into a strip from 1 side to the other.
- Roll the tortilla around the filling, then tuck it into the casserole dish with the seam facing down. Keep going with the remaining tortillas until the dish is full.
- Pour the heavy cream across the enchiladas. Spoon 1 cup of tomatillo salsa over the top, then scatter the grated jack cheese over everything.
- Bake, uncovered, in a 350 degrees F oven for 25 minutes, until the cheese is fully melted and the enchiladas are hot all the way through.
- Take the dish out of the oven and finish it with the sliced black olives and chopped green onions. Bring it to the table right away.
