Provided by Molly Yeh

Time 40m

Yield 10 burritos

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 1/2 pounds sweet potatoes, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
Olive oil, for drizzling
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 Spanish onion, finely diced
1 jalapeno, seeded and finely chopped
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1/2 teaspoon dried Mexican oregano
2 cups packed fresh baby spinach

Juice of 1 lime
Ten 10-inch whole-wheat tortillas
1 bunch fresh cilantro, chopped
Hot sauce, as desired

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
