This seafood twist on enchiladas ditches the traditional red sauce for a creamy, nutmeg-spiked coating that lets sweet crab shine.

Spinach adds color and nutrients, while Monterey Jack melts into gooey perfection on top.

The whole thing cooks in the microwave in under 15 minutes, making it a weeknight winner when you want something that feels special without the fuss.

Kitchen Tips

  • Tortilla warmth: That 30-second microwave zap makes tortillas pliable so they roll without cracking.
  • Drainage is key: Squeeze frozen spinach until it’s nearly dry or your filling will turn watery.
  • Spice it up: Add a few dashes of hot sauce to the soup mixture if you like some heat with your seafood.
