Ingredients (serves 4):
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and diced
- 1 can black beans, drained and rinsed
- 1 red bell pepper, diced
- 1 small red onion, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon chipotle chili powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- Sour cream and salsa, for serving
Cooking Tips:
- To save time, you can roast the sweet potatoes in advance and store them in the fridge until you're ready to use them.
- If you don't have chipotle chili powder, you can use regular chili powder and add a dash of smoked paprika for a similar smoky flavor.
- Don't overfill the tortillas, or they'll be difficult to roll up. Aim for about 1/2 cup of filling per tortilla.
Instructions:
1. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a large bowl, toss the sweet potatoes, black beans, red bell pepper, red onion, garlic, olive oil, chipotle chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper until well coated.
3. Spread the mixture in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Roast for 20-25 minutes, stirring once halfway through, until the sweet potatoes are tender and lightly browned.
4. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and sprinkle the cilantro and cheddar cheese over the top of the roasted vegetables.
5. To assemble the burritos, place a tortilla on a clean work surface. Spoon about 1/2 cup of the roasted vegetable mixture onto the center of the tortilla. Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling, then roll it up tightly from the bottom.
6. Repeat with the remaining tortillas and filling.
7. Place the burritos seam-side down on a baking sheet. Bake for 10-15 minutes, until the tortillas are lightly browned and crispy.
8. Serve the burritos hot, with sour cream and salsa on the side.
