Ingredients
- 1 sweet potato
- 6 medium tortillas
- 1 shallot
- 1 can of black beans
- 1/8 tsp of cinnamon
- Sprinkle of salt
- 1/2 tsp cumin
- 1/4 tsp coriander
- Sprinkle pepper
- 1/4 of a lime
Instructions
-
Using a fork, poke holes all around the sweet potato. Bake it on a silicon mat for 45 minutes at 425 degrees. It will be ready when you can easily put the fork all the way into the potato at the thickest part.
-
Cut the potato in half and scoop out the flesh into a medium bowl. Mash with a fork until an even texture forms. Add in all seasonings and mix again.
-
Next, add in beans and shallots, mixing until well combined. If you are using refried beans, don’t add them in yet.
-
Bring a pan to medium heat
-
Spread a third of the sweet potato mixture on each of three tortillas. Add a layer of spinach on top. If you are using refried beans, you can add a layer on top of the spinach. Top with a second tortilla.
-
Add this into the pan and cook each side for 3 minutes or until the tortillas turn golden brown.
-
Top your finished quesadillas with a squeeze of lime, green onions, salsa, or whatever your heart desires. Enjoy!
