5 cups peeled cubed sweet potatoes
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons other vegetable oil or 2 teaspoons broth
3 1/2 cups diced onions
4 garlic cloves, minced (or pressed)
1 tablespoon minced fresh green chili pepper
4 teaspoons ground cumin
4 teaspoons ground coriander
4 1/2 cups cooked black beans (three 15-ounce cans, drained)
2/3 cup lightly packed cilantro leaf
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon salt
12 (10 inch) flour tortillas
fresh salsa

  • Drain and set aside.
  • While the sweet potatoes are cooking, warm the oil in a medium skillet or saucepan and add the onions, garlic, and chile.
  • Cover and cook on medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until the onions are tender, about 7 minutes.
  • Add the cumin and coriander and cook for 2 to 3 minutes longer, stirring frequently.
  • Remove from the heat and set aside.
  • In a food processor, combine the black beans, cilantro, lemon juice, salt, and cooked sweet potatoes and puree until smooth (or mash the ingredients in a large bowl by hand).

  • Lightly oil a large baking dish.
  • Spoon about 2/3 to 3/4 cup of the filling in the center of each tortilla, roll it up, and place it, seam side down, in the baking dish.

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 17

3/4 cup quick-cooking white rice
2/3 cup Mexican salsa verde, divided
4 tablespoons chopped cilantro, divided
2 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
1 medium (about 8 ounces) sweet potato, grated
1 teaspoon kosher salt, divided
1 teaspoon ground cumin, divided
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper, divided
8 ounces sliced button mushrooms
1/2 medium red onion, thinly sliced
1 (16-ounce) can black beans, rinsed, drained
5 ounces baby spinach
1 lime, halved
4 (12") flour tortillas
1/3 cup sour cream
3/4 cup grated Monterey Jack cheese (about 2 1/2 ounces)
1 avocado, diced

Steps:

  • Cook rice according to package directions. Fluff with a fork and stir in 1/3 cup salsa and 2 Tbsp. cilantro.
  • Meanwhile, heat 1 Tbsp. oil over medium-high in a large nonstick skillet. Add sweet potato and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 3 minutes. Stir in 1/2 tsp. salt, 1/2 tsp. cumin, and 1/4 tsp. cayenne, then transfer to a large bowl.
  • Heat remaining 1 Tbsp. oil in another large skillet, add mushrooms, and cook, stirring, until mushrooms begin to brown and release moisture, about 3 minutes. Add onion and remaining 1/2 tsp. salt, 1/2 tsp. cumin, and 1/4 tsp. cayenne; cook, stirring, until mushrooms and onions are tender and cooked through, about 3 minutes. Stir in beans and spinach; cook until warm, about 1 minute more. Transfer mushroom mixture to bowl with sweet potatoes, squeeze half of the lime over, and stir to combine.
  • Place tortillas on a plate and cover with a damp towel. Microwave until warm, about 1 minute. Mix sour cream and remaining 1/3 cup salsa verde and 2 Tbsp. cilantro in a small bowl.
  • Place warm tortillas on a work surface. Place 3 tbsp. cheese in the center of each tortilla, then top with 1 cup potato mixture and 1/4 cup rice. Divide avocado among tortillas and top each with 2 tbsp. sour cream sauce. Fold 2 sides of tortilla over filling, then roll up tortilla to enclose filling. Place burrito seam side down onto a plate and cut in half, if desired. Repeat with remaining tortillas. Cut remaining lime half into wedges and serve alongside.

Tips:

  • Use ripe sweet potatoes: Look for sweet potatoes that are firm and have a deep orange color. Avoid potatoes that are bruised or have soft spots.
  • Roast the sweet potatoes: Roasting intensifies the flavor of the sweet potatoes and makes them slightly caramelized. You can roast the potatoes whole or in cubes.
  • Use canned black beans: Canned black beans are a quick and easy way to add protein and fiber to your burritos. Be sure to rinse and drain the beans before using.
  • Make your own salsa: Homemade salsa is always better than store-bought. If you have the time, make a batch of your favorite salsa to use in your burritos.
  • Use fresh cilantro: Cilantro adds a bright, fresh flavor to the burritos. Chop the cilantro just before serving.

Conclusion:

Sweet potato and black bean burritos are a delicious and healthy meal that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They're packed with flavor and nutrients, and they're easy to make.
