- ½-1 tsp Salt
- 10 Corn Tortillas *Siete Grain Free Tortillas, or Fajita Flour Tortillas
- 1 Cup Shredded Cheddar cheese

- 1 can Black Beans *strained and rinsed
- ¼ tsp salt
- ¼ tsp onion powder
- ¼ tsp garlic powder
Spanish Rice
- 2 cups Minute Rice
- 1 ½ cups Chicken Broth
- ½ cup Tomato Sauce
- 1 ½ tsp Chili Powder
- 1 tsp Cumin
- ½ tsp Garlic Salt
- ½ tsp Dried Oregano *or fresh oregano
Instructions
- Place all Spanish rice ingredients into a large microwaveable bowl, stir to combine. Place lid on, leaving a small opening to vent. Microwave for 6 minutes, let it rest for 5-10 minutes before removing the lid and fluffing with a fork.
- Add cooking spray to a skillet and add the shredded chicken, sprinkle the packet of taco seasoning over the chicken, with 1 tsp of salt. Stir to combine, then cook for 2 minutes, set aside.
- Use a skillet on medium heat, to heat the tortillas through. You can use cooking spray, and be sure to flip over onto both sides for even cooking.
- For the black beans, strain and rinse thoroughly with water, add to a bowl. Add the onion powder, salt, and garlic powder over the beans and stir to combine.
- Once the beans, Spanish rice, meat, and tortillas are ready, it's time to assemble. Place 5 meal prep containers on the counter, add two cooked tortillas to each container, put equal amounts of the chicken and cheese into each tortilla. Roll up the filled tortillas and push to one side of the container. Scoop 1/2 cup Spanish rice into each container, and 1/4-1/3 cup black beans to each container as well. Drizzle the enchilada sauce over the top of all the enchiladas equally.
- Store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Heat in the microwave before eating the day of. You can also add a side of fresh lettuce and low fat ranch dressing, some salsa, or a scoop of guacamole to the side after it has been reheated. Enjoy!
