Skinny Enchiladas

So, perhaps I should have checked the points on this recipe (and maybe my ingredients) before I convinced myself I was making it. Regardless it looks good, smells good and although probably not up to our Mexican (okay so mexicanish) friends standards it will potentially taste good???? I hope!

INGREDIENTS for enchiladas
9 large tortillas (low carb La Tortilla available at Costco or Walmart in Bellingham)
1 1/2 cups shredded cooked chicken breast meat (I used 10 ounces of a dark/white meat mix I had)
1 cup chopped onion (didn't have onion, so I used a small amount of onion powder, shhh don't tell hubby)
1 cup chopped bell pepper (I used 1/2 red 1/2 green)
1/2 cup non fat greek yogurt (I used light Daisy sour cream, please do not use a light sour cream unless it is thick)
1/2 cup shredded low fat mexican cheese

INGREDIENTS for sauce
3/4 cup salsa
1/4 cup non fat yogurt (same as above, I used sour cream)
1/4 cup low fat shredded cheese

DIRECTIONS
1. Preheat oven to 350 and lightly spray a 9 X 13 baking dish with cooking spray.
2. Saute onions and peppers in small skillet until onions are lightly browned.
3. Mix veggies with yogurt, chicken and cheese.
4. Spred 1/4 cup of mixture down middle of tortilla, roll it up and place seam down in baking dish.
5. Mix salsa and yogurt for sauce in small bowl and evenly cover tortillas, sprinkle with cheese
6. Cover with foil and bake for 15-20 minutes.

7. ENJOY ~ which is what I am going to do as I can hear my timer now! Come back to hear how it was!
