INSTRUCTIONS

Enchilada Assembly:

TIPS
- Enchilada Sauce – Find one that is sugar free or you can make your own!
- Tortillas – I used La Banderita Carb Counter wraps. They are 50 calories and 5 net carbs each. They are not gluten free.
- For a gluten free version, you can use thinly sliced chicken lunch meat, steamed cabbage or Folio cheese wraps. Of course, this will change the nutrition info.
