I recently cut meat out of my diet completely. In my quest for new and interesting meals, I came up with these delicious quesadillas!

Ingredients

1 large sweet potato , peeled and diced
1 teaspoon chopped fresh cilantro
0.25 teaspoons chili powder
0.5 teaspoons salt
0.25 cups frozen corn
1 can black beans , 19 ounce
8 flours tortillas , 8 inch
1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
cooking spray

Instructions

1

Place sweet potatoes into a large pot and cover with salted water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until very tender, about 15 minutes. Drain and transfer to a bowl. Mash sweet potatoes and mix in cilantro, chili powder, and salt.
2

Place corn in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave on high until warmed, 1 to 2 minutes.
3

Spread 1/4 cup sweet potato mixture onto 1 tortilla; cover with 1/4 cup black beans and 1 tablespoon corn. Sprinkle 1/4 cup Cheddar cheese atop corn; cover with a tortilla. Repeat with remaining tortillas and fillings.
4

Spray a frying pan with cooking spray and place over medium heat; cook 1 quesadilla in the hot pan until cheese is melted and beans are heated through, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Repeat with remaining quesadillas; slice into quarters.
