Instructions

Creating Sweet Potato Burritos is simple! Follow these easy steps for a delicious meal:

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
2. Roast the Sweet Potatoes: Toss cubed sweet potatoes with olive oil, chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper in a mixing bowl. Spread them on a baking sheet and roast for 25-30 minutes, until tender.
3. Prepare the Filling: In a large bowl, combine the roasted sweet potatoes, black beans, corn, red onion, bell pepper, and half of the shredded cheese. Mix well until everything is evenly combined.
4. Warm the Tortillas: Warm the flour tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side, or until soft and pliable.
5. Fill the Tortillas: Divide the sweet potato mixture among the tortillas. Add a sprinkle of the remaining cheese on top.
6. Roll the Burritos: Fold in the sides of each tortilla and roll them up tightly to enclose the filling.
7. Bake the Burritos: Place the burritos seam-side down on a baking sheet. If desired, sprinkle with additional cheese. Bake in the oven for 10-15 minutes, until the tortillas are golden and crispy.
8. Serve: Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before slicing in half. Serve with your choice of toppings.
