Ingredients

• 12 (10-inch) flour tortillas
• 2 pounds turkey sausage, recipe follows
• 1 1/2 pound mozzarella, shredded
• 3/4 cup roasted red bell peppers, cut into 1/4-inch long strips
• 1 cup basil pesto, recipe follows

Directions

Turkey Sausage:

2/3 cup chicken broth

2 ounces chipotle chiles in adobo sauce

2 pounds ground turkey

1 tablespoon ground sage

1 tablespoon dried oregano

1 tablespoon ground cumin

3 tablespoons salt

2 tablespoons freshly ground black pepper

Place the chicken broth and chipotle chiles with adobo sauce in a blender, and puree until smooth, about 1 minute. In a large skillet over medium high heat, begin cooking the turkey sausage. Then add in the chipotle chile mixture and cook until the meat is crumbly and well done, about 10 to 15 minutes. Toward the end of the cooking, add in your sage, oregano, cumin, salt, and pepper. Cool the sausage mixture before spooning it onto the tortillas.

Basil Pesto:

1 cup fresh basil leaves, firmly packed

1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil

1/2 cup pecans or pine nuts

1/4 cup Parmesan, grated

1 tablespoon salt

Put the basil and olive oil into a food processor and blend until smooth. Next, add the pecans, Parmesan, and salt. Continue to blend until smooth, adding more olive oil, if necessary, to achieve a smooth consistency.
