• Sauté the diced onion over medium-high heat in the olive oil in a large skillet until softened and starting to brown (about 3 minutes).

• Add 1/4 cup of the enchilada sauce to the turkey mixture and stir together. Turn off heat.

Fill each tortilla with about 1/3 cup of the turkey mixture (just estimate, it doesn't have to be perfect), along with about 2 tablespoons of the shredded cheese. Fold the tortilla over to overlap the two sides, and place each seam-side down in the prepared baking dish.
• If you have any leftover filling, just stuff along the ends of the prepared enchiladas in the baking dish (or use it for another purpose).
• Cover the center of the enchiladas with the remaining 1 cup of enchilada sauce, and top with remaining cheese.
• Bake covered with foil at 375 degrees for 20 minutes. Uncover and bake for 10 more minutes, until cheese is fully melted and ends of enchiladas are starting to brown a bit.
• Serve topped with diced avocado, red onion, fresh cilantro, and sour cream, if desired.
