Directions
Black Bean & Sweet Potato Enchiladas, Yummy! Adapted from “Vegan Planet, ” this recipe is something my non-vegetarian hubby requests regularly. Roasting the sweet potatoes is absolutely the key to this recipe – I’ve cooked them other ways before and it turns out much less flavorful. It looks like a lot of ingredients, but it goes together quickly and makes great left overs too! In the future, I plan to try substituting homemade enchilada sauce for the salsa and more tomatoes. **Update: as some of the reviewers have noted, the cayenne pepper makes this a pretty spicy number! You may want to add less if you don’t like the heat., My changes… 4 sweet potatoes +cinnamon, sugar, onion powder, and red pepper flakes in addition to cayenne and garlic powder No red onion, green pepper, chili peppers or cheese 1 can Roma tomatoes with chilies Corn tortillas Restaurant style Pace Picante Upped all the spices Guac at the end So good!!!!!, This was terrific! I halved the recipe but I only had 4 tortillas so I had quite a bit of filling left. It was so good, I may just make the filling next time and skip the tortillas.
