Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 pieces Almond flour tortillas
- 2 cups Cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1 cup Monterey Jack cheese, shredded
- 4 oz Cream cheese, softened
- 1.5 cups Enchilada sauce (low carb)
- 3 stalks Green onions, chopped
- 1 tsp Ground cumin
- 1 tsp Chili powder
- 1 tsp Garlic powder
- 0.5 tsp Salt
- 0.25 tsp Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large mixing bowl, combine cream cheese, 1 1/2 cups of shredded cheddar cheese, cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
Spread 1/4 cup of the enchilada sauce on the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish.
Take an almond flour tortilla and spoon about 3 tablespoons of the cheese mixture onto the tortilla. Roll it tightly and place it seam-side down in the baking dish. Repeat with the remaining tortillas.
Pour the remaining enchilada sauce over the rolled tortillas, spreading it out evenly to cover all the tortillas.
Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of cheddar cheese and 1 cup of Monterey Jack cheese over the top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Remove the enchiladas from the oven and let them cool for about 5 minutes.
Garnish with chopped green onions before serving.
Serve warm and enjoy!
