Sweet Potato Enchiladas...

Mexican food is a constant in our home! We love tacos, enchiladas, burritos, and nachos. And whenever I can add a new Mexican dish to our menu, I'm ecstatic. A year or so ago, I stumbled across a dish called Sweet Potato Enchiladas. I've made my own twists and tweaks with this recipe and we LOVE it! So I thought I'd share it today.
