  • 1 can black beans drained and rinsed
  • 1 cup corn kernels frozen or fresh
  • 2 teaspoons chipotle powder
  • 1 teaspoon cumin

  • 2 cups enchilada sauce
  • 1 cup shredded cheese cheddar or Mexican blend
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro chopped

Instructions

  1. 1 Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. 2 In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add diced sweet potatoes and cook for about 10 minutes until they start to soften.

  4. 4 Spread 1/2 cup of enchilada sauce on the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish.
  5. 5 Spoon about 1/3 cup of the sweet potato mixture onto each tortilla, roll them up, and place them seam-side down in the baking dish.
  6. 6 Pour the remaining enchilada sauce over the rolled tortillas and sprinkle with shredded cheese.
  7. 7 Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes or until the cheese is bubbly and golden.
  8. 8 Garnish with chopped cilantro, and serve with sour cream and sliced avocado on top.
