Description

A delightful mix of sweet potatoes and black beans wrapped in corn tortillas, topped with spicy enchilada sauce.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 large sweet potatoes (about 1.5 lbs)
  • 1 can black beans (15 oz)
  • 1 cup corn (fresh or frozen)
  • 1 small onion
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 cups enchilada sauce
  • 8 corn tortillas
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Peel and chop the sweet potatoes into cubes and boil them in salted water for about 15 minutes until tender.
  2. Drain the sweet potatoes and transfer them to a large bowl. Mash them slightly and add the black beans (drained and rinsed), corn, chopped onion, garlic, cumin, and chili powder. Mix until well combined.
  3. Spread about 1 cup of enchilada sauce on the bottom of a 9×13-in baking dish. Warm the corn tortillas in a dry skillet for about 30 seconds on each side until pliable.
  4. Fill each tortilla with a generous scoop of the sweet potato and black bean mixture, roll them up, and arrange them seam-side down in the baking dish. Pour the remaining enchilada sauce over the top.
  5. Sprinkle cheese if using, cover with foil, and bake for 20 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes until golden and heated through.
  6. Serve hot and finish with your favorite garnishes such as chopped cilantro and avocado slices.

Notes

Feel free to customize with jalapeños, bell peppers, or additional cheese for extra flavor.
