Sweet Potato and Black Bean Quesadillas

INGREDIENTS

1 medium sweet potato, cubed

¼ cup salsa

1 tsp chili powder

1 tsp cumin

½ juice of 1 lime

2 tbsp nutritional yeast

1 cup cooked black beans

4 whole wheat tortillas

DIRECTIONS

Place cubed sweet potato in saucepan with enough water to cover. Bring to boil, then reduce heat, cover and simmer
until fork-tender (10-15 minutes)

Transfer cooked sweet potato to mixing bowl and add salsa, chili powder, cumin, lime, and nutritional yeast. With a fork, smash and
mix until well-combined. Fold in black beans.

Heat grill or pan over medium heat. I used the George Forman grill. Spread 1-2 tablespoons of the mixture onto a tortilla and spread. Top with second tortilla and press it down. Repeat with remaining tortillas.

Place quesadillas in
pan/grill for about 3 mins on each side, until they are golden brown. Slice into wedges and serve with guacamole or salsa.
