Enchiladas

Enchiladas are safe and filling while breastfeeding! These baked tortillas stuffed with protein and topped with chile sauce are a comforting, satisfying meal.

Enchiladas contain tortillas, your choice of filling (chicken, beef, cheese, or beans), and a red or green chile sauce. All ingredients are breastfeeding-safe. They tend to be higher in sodium and calories, which is actually helpful for the increased caloric needs of nursing moms. Enjoy!
