Method:  

1. Make the enchilada sauce first by blending all ingredients into a smooth sauce. 
2. Rinse and drain the tinned jackfruit chunks. Cut off the solid ends of the jackfruit chunks and chop finely. Roughly shred (the thready part) using two forks to pull it apart (it will soften more when cooked). 
3. Pour half the enchilada sauce over the jackfruit and marinade while you prepare the veggies. 
4. Heat a little oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the onion and cook 5 minutes or so, until softened. Add in the garlic and cook for 1 more minute. 
5. Add in the mushrooms and peppers and cook for a few minutes. 
6. Add in the jackfruit (with the sauce it's marinading in) and the black beans. 
7. Stir. Cook on a medium heat for 10 minutes until the veggies and jackfruit have softened. 
8. Take the pan off the heat and stir in the spinach and lime juice. Let wilt for a few minutes. 
9. You are now ready to assemble your enchiladas. 
10. Pour half of the remaining enchilada sauce into a baking dish and spread it evening. 
11. Fill each tortilla wrap with the veggie mix, wrap up and place seam side down in the baking dish.   
12. Pour the remaining enchilada sauce over the top of the filled tortillas. 
13. Top with a thick drizzle of cashew cream cheese or grate some of your favourite Vegan cheese and sprinkle on top.  
14. Bake for 10-15 minutes until the tortillas are nice and crispy on the top. 
15. Serve with mashed avocado, tomato salsa and top with some Red Hot Firekraut for fiery enchiladas.
