Sweet Potato and Bean Quesadillas Recipe
From Brittany Hubbard, Taste of Home
Ingredients:
2 medium sweet potatoes
4 whole wheat tortillas (8 inches)
¾ cup canned black beans, rinsed and drained
½ cup shredded pepper jack cheese
¾ cup salsa
Directions:
1. Scrub sweet potatoes; pierce several times with a fork. Place on a microwave-safe plate. Microwave, uncovered, on high 7-9 minutes or until very tender, turning once.
2. When cool enough to handle, cut each potato lengthwise in half. Scoop out pulp. Spread onto one half of each tortilla; top with beans and cheese. Fold other half of tortilla over filling.
3. Heat a griddle or skillet over medium heat. Cook quesadillas 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cheese is melted. Serve with salsa.
