How to Prepare Slow Cooker Enchiladas [Vegan, Gluten-Free]

In a large bowl, combine the beans, spinach, corn, cumin, salt, pepper, turmeric, chili powder, garlic powder, and half the cheese.
Pour half of the salsa into the bottom of the slow cooker.
Lay the tortillas out on a flat surface and divide the bean mixture among them.
Roll them up and arrange them, seam-side-down, in a single layer on top of the salsa.
If you have any filling left in the bowl, pour it on top of the enchiladas. Pour the rest of the salsa on top. Sprinkle the remaining cheese on top of the salsa.
Cook this on low or medium heat for 2-1/2 hours, or until the cheese is melted and everything is hot.
Serve it with radishes, lime wedges, and scallions.
