You might be wondering…what in the heck are acne safe green enchiladas? Well, we are going to let you in on our dirty little secret. Clearing acne starts within by cleaning up your diet.
We love Mexican food, and we know our clients do too! But whoa! Mexican food is typically covered in melted cheese (that’s probably why we love it so much!)
And, if you are anything like us, you have to cut the cheese to clear your skin. So, here’s a great enchilada recipe that is healthy and oh-so tasty without any cheese. Let us know what you think!
INGREDIENTS FOR DAIRY FREE ENCHILADAS
FOR THE CHICKEN:
- 3 cups shredded chicken (rotisserie is quick and easy)
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1/2 tsp cumin
- 1/2 tsp dried oregano
- 1/2 cup salsa verde
FOR THE ACNE SAFE GREEN ENCHILADAS:
- 12 grain free tortillas (we love Siete cassava flour tortillas)
- 1 jar [10.8 ounces] Siete “Spicy Blanco” Cashew Queso
- 3/4 cup Salsa Verde
FOR SERVING
- 2 tbsp cilantro, finely chopped (optional)
- 2 tbsp red onion, finely diced (optional)
INSTRUCTIONS
-
Preheat oven to 375 and lightly grease a 9×13 baking dish.
-
In a large bowl, combine the shredded chicken, paprika, black pepper, cumin, dried oregano and salsa verde. Toss chicken to evenly coat.
-
Place tortillas on a plate and heat in microwave for 15 seconds. This will soften them up just a bit so they are easier to roll.
-
Add a small amount of chicken to one end of the tortilla (about 2 tbsp). Gently roll the tortilla and place it seam side down into the prepared baking dish. Continue rolling until all tortillas are filled and placed in the baking dish.
-
In a small bowl, combine 3/4 cup salsa verde and the cashew queso. Evenly pour the queso mixture over the enchiladas and using a rubber spatula, spread to evenly coat.
-
Cover baking dish with foil. Bake, covered, for 25 minutes, until the enchiladas are hot all the way through and bubbly.
-
Remove aluminum foil and top with cilantro and red onion for serving.
