Healthy Chicken, Black Bean, and Corn Enchiladas Recipe

Features:
    Cuisine:

    Change it up! Okay so we did no cornmeal and instead of enchilada mix we used chili mix. I sauteed the garlic, onion and green pepper then added the corn and black beans. Then added the tomato paste (I think tomato sauce would be better in the future) and the chili mix and about 1 1/2 cups - 2 cups of water. I had to use a bit more than I thought because the paste couldn't break down all the way. I added shredded chicken and mixed and lastly added some cubed tomatoes and mix. I plated by layering tortilla chips, mixture, shredded cheese. If you like sour cream and chive you could add this for toppings. Thanks!
