This Healthy Mexican Casserole is full of good for you ingredients like ground turkey, quinoa, black beans & bell peppers! Healthy Mexican food? Yes please!
Cook quinoa according to package directions, but instead of using water, use chicken broth (and cook it with 1/2 cup less liquid then package suggests). Set aside.
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F and grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.
Heat oil in a large saute pan over medium - medium high heat. Add in meat and spices and cook until no longer pink, breaking it up as it cooks.
Add in veggies: jalapeno, onion, peppers, garlic, season with a touch of salt, and cook until crisp tender, about 3 minutes.
Stir in black beans, corn, enchilada sauce, cooked quinoa, and 1 cup of Mexican-style cheese.
Season with salt, if necessary.
Transfer to the greased 9x13 inch baking dish and sprinkle with remaining cheese.
Bake in preheated oven for 15 minutes or until mixture is hot and cheese is melty.
