About this Easiest Tilapia Green Enchilada Casserole:
This recipe is super comforting and with a twist of a Mexican classic! Green enchiladas are my personal favorite but thinking on all the process it takes to make them made me rethink the method in other to still enjoy the delicious taste and comfort without taking that long in the process.
I decided to transform it into a casserole and as mentioned earlier, keeping it extra easy by using the right kitchen tools from Karibe:
A low carb, comforting and gluten free casserole, no gluten and high protein recipe. We are adding green salsa (of course!), some panels cheese, baked tostadas and some eggs into this recipe.
The key to a delicious green enchilada is a good salsa so I try to make my own (recipe to my green salsa HERE) and of course the touch of the baked tostadas along with the cheese. Who doesn't love a good comforting meal, right?

What's in this Easiest Tilapia Green Enchilada Casserole?
Well, besides the tilapia and green salsa we are adding some eggs and some cheese to keep things cheesy and nourishing too! Plus we are adding our seasonings as well along with some baked tostadas to make that tortilla addition enchiladas have.
Tilapia is great protein option to add into your lifestyle! As a nutritionist I know that healthy eating should be sustainable and convenient without sacrificing any taste. Tilapia is just a great source of protein, vitamin B12 that's is essential for healthy blood and red cells. Also naturally low in fat.
Protein can be super versatile; this comforting recipe for example, these other of my own recipes:
Top my Turkey Meatzzas
Add them to these Double Cheese Spicy Turkey Bites
Or make these Broccoli Cheddar Biltong Scones
Check for your ingredients! I believe that it's so important to get quality ingredients no matter what type of lifestyle you follow or live by. When it comes to animal products I recommend getting grass-fed, wild-caught (or sustainably raised) and pastured raised whenever it's possible; that also means that animals were more likely to be treated better.

Key Ingredients in this Recipe:
Okay, so what makes enchiladas what they are is the tortilla, but we are using tostadas to keep things easier, cheese and the salsa; it can be green or red.... this time we are going green!
Of course tilapia, the base of out green enchiladas and that also adds some vitamins, nutrients and protein. Enchiladas are typically made with chicken but fun fact; my mom used to make tuna enchiladas growing up so this is why I decided to go with tilapia instead of chicken.
And for spices, adding real salt, pepper and garlic really amps up any taste and aroma to the recipes; a must and another sneaky way to get some micronutrients such as minerals from the sea salt.
