Dinner - Beef Enchiladas
INGREDIENTS
cooked, shred, beef roast
1 Tablespoon Olive Oil
1/3 cup diced onion
16 ounce can black beans
14.5 ounce can diced tomatoes
4 ounce can diced green chilies
Salt and pepper to taste
1 c. frozen corn
6 T fat free cream cheese
1/2 c. Shredded Cheese (I used Mexican blend)
pkt of taco seasoning
red sauce(1 can tomato sauce, 4 T tomato paste, 1 pkt Equal, garlic salt/powder)
tortillas DIRECTIONS
Place olive oil in a large sauce pan and turn to medium heat. Add onion and sautee. Next, add diced green chilies, softened cream cheese, diced tomatoes(semi drained), beans, corn and beef. Add taco seasoning and heat for a few minutes.
Spray glass baking pan. Place filled/rolled up enchiladas in pan. Cover w/ homeade red sauc., top w/ cheese and bake till melted approx. 15 min.
*This made enough filling for about 12 enchiladas, however, I only made 6 and froze the rest. The cheese quantity used was for 6 enchiladas only.
Soooo good.
We ate 2 each for dinner, saved 1 each for a lunch, and froze remaining.
I estimate they are approx. 425 cal. each. ( I used 120 cal. tortillas.)

Serves 2
Pork Chops:
Marinate pork chops in a mixture of soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, and 1 teaspoon brown sugar. (I didn't have time to marinate this meal, so I just poured over chops covered and baked.)
Preheat oven to 425. I lined a pan with foil. Place chops in pan. Pour marinade over chops. Cover tightly w/ 2nd piece of foil and bake for 45 min (depending on thickness of chops).
After cooked I ate mine w/ about 2 teaspoons bbq sauce.
Brussel Sprouts:
Cut ends off sprouts. Slice in half. Place in baking dish. Add a little water. Cover w/ lid and microwave about 5 min.
In skillet add 1 T marg and half an onion. Saute. Add in 1/2 c. fresh mushrooms. Stir in approx. 1/3 c. milk, garlic salt/powder, onion powder, salt and pepper. Let most of milk evaporate. Add steamed sprouts and approx. 1 teaspoon bacon bits and 2 T parmesan. Stir together and serve.
