To make this dish, you will need the following ingredients:

For the enchiladas:

- 2 large sweet potatoes, peeled and diced
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 can black beans, drained and rinsed
- 1 can diced tomatoes with green chilies, drained
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
- 8-10 corn tortillas
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

For the cilantro lime crema:

- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
To start, preheat your oven to 375°F. In a large bowl, toss the diced sweet potatoes with olive oil, cumin, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Spread the sweet potatoes out on a baking sheet and roast for 20-25 minutes, or until tender and lightly browned.
In a separate bowl, mix together the black beans, diced tomatoes, and cilantro. Add the roasted sweet potatoes to the bowl and stir to combine.
To assemble the enchiladas, warm the corn tortillas in the microwave or on a griddle until they are pliable. Spoon the sweet potato mixture onto each tortilla and roll up tightly. Place the enchiladas seam-side down in a baking dish and sprinkle with shredded cheddar cheese.
Bake the enchiladas for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
While the enchiladas are baking, make the cilantro lime crema by whisking together the sour cream, cilantro, lime juice, and salt.
Once the enchiladas are done, remove them from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. Drizzle the cilantro lime crema over the top of the enchiladas and serve.
