Add mushrooms, potatoes, garlic and ¼ cup water and cook, stirring occasionally, until all vegetables are softened, about 10 minutes. Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in spinach, cilantro and red pepper flakes until spinach is wilted. Add feta and stir to blend.

Place ⅓ cup of vegetable mixture in the lower part of each tortilla and roll up. Carefully place enchiladas seam side down in the baking pan, brush lightly with some of the liquid from the salsa, cover with foil and bake for 20 minutes.

A bit of feta cheese is in the wrap for tangy flavor and creaminess.
