Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 large sweet potato, peeled and diced (cook in the microwave for about 3-5 minutes, to soften)
1 (15 oz.) can black beans, drained and rinsed
1 (14.5 oz.) can diced tomatoes, drained
½ an onion, chopped
1 red or green bell pepper, chopped
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon garlic salt
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 cup salsa, divided
2-4 tortillas, depending on size (corn, flour, sprouted, gluten-free or whole wheat)
4 oz. shredded cheese, use vegan as desired (optional)
Salt & pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Spray an 8 x 8 baking dish with a natural cooking spray; set aside. In a large bowl, combine diced sweet potato, black beans, tomatoes, onion, bell pepper, chili powder, garlic salt, and cinnamon. Spread ½ cup salsa on the bottom of the baking dish. Arrange a tortilla on top, ripping into strips to get the right fit. Spoon a large layer of sweet potato/black bean mixture over tortilla strips. Spread the remaining ½ cup salsa over the sweet potato/black bean layer. Add one more layer of tortillas and then add the rest of the sweet potato/black bean mixture over the tortilla layer. Top with cheese, if using. Bake, uncovered, 20-25 minutes and until cheese is melted and top is slightly browned. Let stand 5 minutes. Cut into squares and serve. Top with additional salsa, cilantro, and/or avocado, if desired. Enjoy! I know you will!
