    Source of Recipe


    internet
    1 pound peeled cooked shrimp (21-25 per pound; thawed if frozen), tails removed, diced
    1 cup frozen corn, thawed
    2 (4 ounce) cans chopped green chiles, undrained
    2 cups canned green enchilada sauce or green salsa, divided
    12 corn tortillas
    1 (15 ounce) can nonfat refried beans
    1 cup reduced-fat shredded cheese, such as Mexican-style, Monterey Jack or Cheddar
    1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro
    1 lime, cut into wedges

    1.Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Coat a 9-by-13-inch glass baking dish with cooking spray.
    2.Combine shrimp, corn, chiles and 1/2 cup enchilada sauce (or salsa) in a microwave-safe medium bowl. Cover and microwave on High until heated through, 2 1/2 minutes.
    3.Spread 1/4 cup enchilada sauce (or salsa) in the prepared baking dish. Top with an overlapping layer of 6 tortillas. Spread refried beans evenly over the tortillas. Top the beans with the shrimp mixture, followed by the remaining 6 tortillas. Pour the remaining sauce (or salsa) over the tortillas. Cover with foil.
    4.Bake the enchiladas until they begin to bubble on the sides, about 20 minutes. Remove the foil; sprinkle cheese on top. Continue baking until heated through and the cheese is melted, about 5 minutes more. Top with cilantro and serve with lime wedges.
    Yield: 8 servings
