How to Make 5 Minute Low Fat Tex Mex Enchiladas

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Spray a 9x13 inch baking pan with cooking spray.
  2. Warm 6 corn or flour tortillas in the microwave, wrapped in damp paper towels, for 45 seconds to 1 minute, until pliable.
  3. In a medium bowl, combine 1 (15-ounce) can chili (drained), 1 (15-ounce) can beans (drained and rinsed), 1 cup frozen corn (thawed), and 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese.
  4. Place about 1/5 of the chili mixture in the center of each tortilla. Fold in the sides, then roll up and place seam-down in the prepared baking pan.
  5. In a small bowl, whisk together 1 (10-ounce) can diced tomatoes and green chilies (undrained), 1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed low-sodium cream of mushroom soup, and the remaining 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese.
  6. Pour the cheese sauce evenly over the enchiladas.
  7. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and lightly browned.
  8. Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
