Savory Sweet Potato Quesadillas
Savory Sweet Potatoes make a delicious meatless Quesadilla
Ingredients
- 3 Sweet Potatoes peeled and cut into chunks
- 1 pkg Taco Seasoning
- 1/2 can black beans drained
- 2 cups shredded Cheddar Cheese
- 1 lime juiced
- 5-6 soft tortillas
Instructions
- Place cubed sweet potatoes on a baking sheet with a generous drizzle of olive oil and sprinkle them with the pack of taco seasoning.
- Roast at 400 degrees for about 45 minutes or until the potatoes are fork tender. You will need to stir a couple of times while cooking to prevent burning.
- Once potatoes are soft place them in a bowl and mash them with a fork or potato masher until smooth.
- Stir in the lime juice and salt and pepper if needed.
- Cover half of the tortilla with a layer of mashed sweet potatoes, top with a spoonful of black beans, and a generous handful of cheddar cheese.
- Fold over half of the tortilla and grill on the stove or griddle until the outside is lightly brown and the cheese is melted.
