Veggie Enchilada

While I was browsing the web the other day, I stumbled across some black bean sweet potato enchiladas. They sounded really good, so I set about creating my own recipe. The result is delicious vegan enchiladas with lots of flavor and texture.

I wanted my enchiladas to have lots of flavor, color, and texture as you can see from the ingredient photo below. They turned out really well, so well in fact that after making them for Sunday dinner, I made them again on Wednesday night. The combination of the enchilada sauce and the salsa smelled great.
