Cook the turkey mince with chopped onion and green pepper, adding in spinach in the last minute of cooking.

Lay each wrap down on a plate, and spoon in 1/8 the cooked turkey with veggies and sprinkle with 1/16 of the cheese.
5.
Roll up and place seam side down in a greased 13x9x2 pan. (You’ll need to pack them in tight, but in a single layer!)
6.
Pour any remaining enchilada sauce over and sprinkle with remaining 1/8 cheese.
7.
Bake at 190C (Gas Mark 5) for 20-30 min. Cool slightly.
8.
Top with salsa, chopped tomatoes, shredded lettuce and coriander.
