SPINACH AND MUSHROOM ENCHILADAS

Steps:

• For the sauce: Combine all of the sauce ingredients in a saucepan. Bring to a simmer and cook until all of the vegetables are tender, about 15 minutes. If desired, you can puree with an immersion blender or an immersion blender for a smooth consistency. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Thin with water, if necessary. While the sauce is simmering, make the filling.
• For the filling: Heat a 12-inch nonstick saute pan over medium heat. Add the onions and garlic and cook until the onions are translucent, about 4 minutes.
