Here’s a good recipe to use for your leftover turkey.

Roasted Turkey Enchilada Bake

2 cups chopped leftover roasted turkey

16 oz. jar Taco Bell® Thick & Chunky Medium Salsa

15 oz. can black beans, rinsed

1 cup frozen corn

1-1/2 Tbsp. chili powder

4 flour tortillas (8 inch)

3/4 cup sour cream

1-1/2 cups Kraft Mexican Style Shredded Four Cheese with a Touch of Philadelphia

Heat oven to 400°.

Combine first five ingredients.

Place two tortillas, in single layer, on bottom of 13x9-inch baking dish sprayed with cooking spray; top with layers of half each of the turkey mixture, sour cream and cheese. Repeat layers; cover.

Bake 40 minutes or until casserole is heated through and cheese is melted, uncovering after 30 minutes.
