weight loss after birth pregnancy | Recipe Review White Chicken Enchiladas

weight loss after birth pregnancy

I am a huge fan of Pinterest!! I always find and pin the most amazing recipes. However, most of the time these recipes are very high in pointsplus values. Instead of missing out on some of these incredible recipes, I tweak the recipe until it is more Weight Watchers friendly. I put these recipes into my Weight Watchers Recipe Builder in eTools and adjust them until they are much lower in pointsplus values.
For example, I found this recipe for White Chicken Enchiladas on Pinterest. If I were to make the original recipe as it is on Joyful Mommas Kitchen, each individual enchilada would be 8 pointsplus! I have heard that this recipe is good, but I cannot spend 8 pointsplus on one enchilada.

So, I decided to tweak this recipe to make it more Weight Watchers friendly. After I had finished tweaking this recipe it was only 5 pointsplus per enchilada, which is much more reasonable for dinner!

Most of the ingredients

Mix chicken and 1 cup cheese.

Roll up mixture in tortillas and place in pan.

In a sauce pan, melt butter, stir in flour and cook for 1 minute.

Add broth and whisk until smooth. Heat over medium heat until thick and bubbly.

Stir in sour cream and chilies. Do not bring to a boil, you do not want curdled sour cream.

Pour over enchiladas

Top with remaining cheese and bake for 22 minutes and then under high broil for 3 minutes to brown the cheese.

The final product!! Please note that I did not take time to broil the cheese.

This is a great recipe for white enchiladas that does not break the bank!
