Skinny Chicken Enchiladas
Mexican food has been hit or miss during this pregnancy.
For about 4 weeks at the beginning, I couldn't get enough of it...and then all it did was make me gag.

Somewhere in the past 15 weeks I came up with this amazing recipe for healthy chicken enchiladas.
It is so easy and scrumptious.
And at only 230 - 250 calories a serving (depending on the tortilla you use), that's pretty dang good for Mexican food!
