Turkey Cranberry Enchiladas

     It's turkey time again and I couldn't be happier.  This enchilada recipe from Midwest Living is an easy and unusual way to use up some of your Thanksgiving leftovers.  In my 12 inch dutch oven the enchiladas baked for a total of 50 minutes with 12 coals in a ring around the base of the oven and 28 spaced evenly on the lid.  They can also be made with chicken, the tangy, sweet and spicy flavors in these creamy enchiladas are uniquely delicious.
