How to cook deliciously - Easy Creamy Turkey Enchiladas

1. Stage

Sauté the onions in butter, add cumin: Melt butter in small saucepan on medium-high heat. Add the finely diced onion and sauté until golden and lightly browned. Stir the ground cumin into the onions and cook for a minute more. Remove from heat and let cool.

2. Stage

Make the filling: Mix together the cream cheese, sweet potato, cooked chopped turkey, the cooked onions, and a teaspoon of salt with your (clean) hands in a medium bowl.

3. Stage

Preheat the oven: Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter the inside of a 9- x13-inch casserole dish.

4. Stage

Roll up the tortillas with filling: Working one flour tortilla at a time, place about 1/4- to 1/3-cup of the filling mixture into the center of a tortilla, spreading it out in a line from one side to the other. Roll up the tortilla and place it seam-side down in the casserole dish. Repeat with the rest of the tortillas until the dish is filled.

5. Stage

Add the cream, salsa and cheese: Pour heavy cream over all of the enchiladas in the dish. Spread one cup of tomatillo salsa over the top of the enchiladas. Sprinkle with the grated jack cheese.

6. Stage

Bake: Bake in a 350°F oven, uncovered, for 25 minutes, or until the cheese is completely melted and the enchiladas are heated through.
