The other day I baked a turkey breast. I thought I might use some of the meat in a batch of enchiladas. I cut up a little over a pound of cooked meat, added a can of pinto beans and a large can of tomato sauce. I have a recipe for Mexican spice mix. I added an appropriate amount of that and then went to the refrigerator for the corn tortillas I was sure I had recently bought. There weren't any. Now what?
Well, necessity is nothing if not the inspiration for interesting ideas. I had a bag of tortilla chips. The brand I picked up is quite excellent, less salty and with an excellent crispiness. (On the Border brand, if you can find it)
I crumbled some of the chips on the bottom of the baking pan. The turkey mixture went on top of that and then I crumbled more chips - sort of large pieces - on top. Cheddar cheese made the final ingredient. I baked it at 350 for about 20 minutes - just enough to warm it through and melt the cheese.
Delicious!!
