Ingredients

Instructions

  1. 1 Bring a large pot of water to a boil over medium heat. Cook sweet potatoes in boiling water until tender, 25 to 30 minutes. Cool and peel sweet potatoes.
  2. 2 Place sweet potatoes in a large bowl and mash with cream cheese, green onions, chili powder, cumin, oregano, salt, and pepper until well mixed.
  3. 3 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 13x9-inch baking dish.
  4. 4 Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Fry tortillas in hot oil, one at a time, for about 30 seconds per side. Remove tortillas with tongs and drain on paper towels.
  5. 5 Place about 1/3 cup sweet potato filling down the center of each tortilla, roll up, and place seam-side down in the prepared baking dish. Pour enchilada sauce over tortillas. Sprinkle with Monterey Jack cheese.
  6. 6 Bake in the preheated oven until enchiladas are bubbling and cheese is beginning to brown, 20 to 30 minutes.
