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. 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. 2

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

  3. 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. 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.
