Yield 3 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and cubed
olive oil, to taste
½ teaspoon smoked paprika
½ teaspoon garlic powder
kosher salt, to taste
pepper, to taste
½ medium yellow onion, diced
1 jalapeño, seeded and diced
1 clove garlic, minced
1 teaspoon chili powder
½ teaspoon ground cumin
cayenne pepper, to taste
15 oz black beans, 1 can, drained and rinsed
¾ cup corn
3 large flour tortillas
lettuce, chopped, for serving
diced tomato, for serving
shredded vegan cheddar cheese, for serving
guacamole, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  • Add the sweet potatoes to a baking sheet with a drizzle of olive oil, the paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Toss until well coated.
  • Bake for 20 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the sweet potato is tender.
  • Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Once the oil begins to shimmer, add the onion and cook for 3-4 minutes, until semi-translucent. Add the jalapeño, garlic, chili powder, cumin, and cayenne pepper and cook for 2-3 minutes, until the spices are fragrant. Add the black beans and corn, season with salt and pepper, and cook until warmed through, 3-4 more minutes.
  • To assemble a burrito, add ⅓ of the bean and corn mixture, ⅓ of the roasted sweet potatoes, some lettuce, tomatoes, vegan cheese, and guacamole to the center of a tortilla. Fold in the sides and roll up, keeping the filling tucked in place. Repeat with the remaining ingredients. Cut in half and serve.
  • Enjoy!

Time 40m

Yield 10 burritos

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 1/2 pounds sweet potatoes, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
Olive oil, for drizzling
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 Spanish onion, finely diced
1 jalapeno, seeded and finely chopped
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1/2 teaspoon dried Mexican oregano
2 cups packed fresh baby spinach
One 15-ounce can black beans, drained
One 14.5-ounce can diced tomatoes
1 cup crumbled queso fresco
Juice of 1 lime
Ten 10-inch whole-wheat tortillas
1 bunch fresh cilantro, chopped
Hot sauce, as desired

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Add the sweet potatoes to a baking sheet in an even layer. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast until the potatoes are just tender but still have a bite, 15 to 20 minutes. Set aside.

Taste and season as needed.
  • Distribute the mixture evenly among the tortillas. Roll the tortillas, garnish with the cilantro and hot sauce and serve immediately. For freezer meal prep, wrap tightly in plastic wrap or parchment paper and store in an airtight container or bag. Freeze for up to 3 months.
  • To reheat, place wrapped burrito in the microwave and reheat for 3 minutes, flipping once. Unwrap, garnish with the cilantro and hot sauce, if desired, and serve!

BLACK BEAN SWEET POTATO BURRITOS



Black Bean Sweet Potato Burritos image

I made these before a busy week and discovered that they are a covenient, healthy and savory quick meal that's great for travel or a short lunch. I'm not a vegan, but I use vegan cheese because it's much quicker to grate, tastes good and melts instantly. Baking the burritos allows the tortillas to create a crispy seal around the contents so nothing falls out.
