Making dinner after a long day of work can be difficult with a young family so we are always looking for quick, nutritious meal ideas. We threw these together a few weeks ago and they have quickly become a family favourite. They are super easy to assemble and taste amazing!
Ingredients
2-3 Large Sweet Potatoes or Yams, peeled and sliced into chunks
4 Large Whole Wheat Tortilla Wraps
1 tsp Paprika
1 tsp Cumin
1/2 tsp Ground Coriander
1/2 can of Black Beans, rinsed
2 Large handfuls of Cheddar – we are a dairy free household so we used Daiya
3 Green Onions, chopped
Handful of Cilantro, chopped
1 Tomato, Diced
Handful of Spinach, chopped
Salt & Black Pepper, to taste
Olive Oil
Method
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Place the sweet potatoes on a large baking tray and give them a good drizzle of oil. Add the paprika, cumin, ground coriander, cayenne pepper, salt & pepper and give them a mix to completely coat them. Pop in the oven for a good 30-40 mins or until softened and slightly browned.
Take the sweet potatoes out of the even and mash with a fork and place to one side.
Place a tortilla in a large slightly greased pan.
Spread on half of your sweet potato mash, top with half your black beans, green onions, cilantro, tomato, spinach, and cheese. Place a second tortilla on top, press down to contain the filling and lightly brush the top with oil.
Fry on medium heat for around 6-8 mins on each side, or until the tortilla is crispy and slightly golden. TIP: Cover the frying pan with a large plate to assist when flipping the tortilla to prevent losing the filing inside.
Serve with fresh homemade guacamole, salsa and hot sauce.
ENJOY!
