-------- ------------ --------------------------------
2 large baking potatoes
1/2 cup corn kernels
1 large red pepper -- seeded and diced
1 yellow onion -- coarsely chopped
10 ounces spinach leaves -- thinly sliced
28 ounces enchilada sauce
salt and pepper -- to taste
12 corn tortillas
1/4 pound fat-free cheddar cheese -- shredded
Preheat oven to 375º F. Place the potatoes on a baking sheet and bake until tender
when pierced with the tip of a knife, 40-45 minutes. Let cool completely, then dice
and set aside. Reduce oven temperature to 350º F. In a saucepan, combine the
potatoes, corn, bell pepper, onion, and spinach. Add 1 cup of the enchilada sauce
and mix well.
Place over medium heat, cover tightly, and cook until the spinach is wilted,
5-6 minutes. Remove from heat, season with salt & pepper, and set aside. Pour about
1/2 cup of the remaining enchilada sauce into a 9x13" baking dish. It should just
cover the bottom. In a wide frying pan over medium heat, warm the remaining
enchilada sauce. One at a time, dip each tortilla into the warm sauce, allowing it
to warm just enough to become pliable. Then, place it in the prepared baking dish,
and spoon one-twelfth of the potato mixture along its center. Roll it up and arrange
it in the dish seam side down.
Repeat with remaining tortillas and filling. The dish should be tightly packed.
Pour any sauce remaining in the pan over the enchiladas.
Sprinkle with the cheddar cheese. Bake until heated through and the cheese is melted,
20-25 minutes. Serve directly from the dish.

Karen's Notes: Many enchilada recipes call for frying the tortillas, but in this
healthier version they are dipped into the sauce without frying them first. Don't
leave the tortillas in the sauce too long though or they'll fall apart.
