Light version of enchiladas--can add chili powder or jalepenos to add spice. As is can be a bit bland. This is something I've stumbled over, so if anyone has any suggestions, I'll take 'em! You can also add Mexican-mix cheese (2%) to the top (but that's not in the calorie/ingredient count, so measure and add in separately! Same with avocado.)
