For enchilada sauce:
1 cup water
6 oz. salsa
1 6oz. can tomato paste
2 garlic cloves, crushed
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons dried oregano

3 tablespoons sour cream
========================
For enchilada filling:

6 burrito-size flour tortillas

1
Preheat oven to 325.
2
For filling:
3
Place cottage cheese in a fine mesh strainer and rinse with cold water. Drain well. This will leave you with nice, dry curds. In a large bowl combine dry curds with shredded cheese and jalepenos. Stir well. Set aside.
4
For sauce:
5
Combine all ingredients except sour cream in small saucepan. Bring to a boil then reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in sour cream.
6
While sauce is simmering assemble enchiladas by placing 1/6 of the cottage cheese mixture on the lower one-third of a tortilla. Fold in the sides and roll up like a burrito.
7
When the sauce is ready, pour 1/3 of it into the bottom of an oven-proof pan. Place the assembled enchiladas on top of the sauce. Pour the rest of the sauce over the top of the enchiladas. Bake in over for 25-30 minutes or until the sauce is bubbling.
