Meatless Mondays get a Mexican moment here, with these hearty enchiladas that will fill you up without weighing you down. Hearty sweet potatoes and healthy spinach combined with cheese and enchilada sauce give each bite a perfectly sweet-and-salty twist, with the slight heat added from the jalapeño turning these from "great" into "outstanding." You may extend meatless Monday to Tuesday or Wednesday after this meal.
