Baked Biscuit Enchiladas

I saw this recipe on Pinterest a while back and it was advertised as a weight watchers meal.  After looking at the ingredients I wasn't sure that they points value would be that low but I definitely wanted to try it.  It looked so good and SO EASY. It was a really quick meal to cook. I made a few minor adjustments from the original recipe and used whole wheat biscuits instead of white.  They turned our really good.  I highly recommend them but I will warn you that they have a higher point value and calories (if you count calories) then what I usually have for dinner but I had enough points for them so it worked out.  I served it with corn.  You could also add black beans, olives and light sour cream on top.

I have to admit that my food photography is not exactly good.  Its a work in progress so I apologize! =)

 Remove enchilada mixture from heat and add biscuits to the mixture.  Stir till all the biscuits are coated.



 Pour into 9x13 pan.  Sprinkle with cheese and then green onions.
