Description

A healthy and flavorful “Mexican” treat… Smoky and sweet roasted vegetables tucked into a whole wheat tortilla along with black beans and cilantro.

Ingredients

  • 2 whole Sweet Potatoes, Peeled And Cubed Small
  • 2 whole Jalapenos Diced
  • 1 whole Red Pepper, Diced Small
  • 1 whole Red Onion, Diced Small
  • 2 teaspoons Olive Oil
  • 1 teaspoon Cumin
  • 1 teaspoon Chili Powder
  • 1 pinch Salt And Pepper
  • 1 can (15 Oz. Size) Black Beans, Rinsed And Drained
  • ½ cups Fresh Cilantro, Chopped
  • 2 teaspoons Fresh Lime Juice
  • 2 cups Shredded Cheddar
  • 1 package Burrito-Sized Wheat Tortillas Or Wraps (6-10 Count)

Preparation

In a bowl, toss your raw veggies in olive oil and season with spices. Place in a large baking dish and roast in 425 degree oven for 20 minutes, tossing around halfway through.

Let cool. Add your roasted veggies to a can of rinsed black beans. Add cilantro and squirt of lime juice. Combine gently. At this point, mixture can be stored for later use.

Warm your wheat tortillas or wraps in microwave according to directions on package. Spray a casserole dish with nonstick spray or olive oil spray.

Add two heaping tablespoons of vegetable and bean mixture to center of wrap. Top with shredded cheese. Fold over, fold in sides, place in pan and continue to roll the others. Place into your baking dish, seam side down so that they stay together.

Bake in 375 degree oven for about 15 minutes or until golden brown. Baking this way will make the tortilla wrap crisp. For a softer burrito, spray burrito with nonstick spray, then wrap in aluminum foil and bake for same amount of time.

Makes about 6 burritos.

Tip: Premake your burritos and wrap them in aluminum foil. Keep in refrigerator for 3-4 days for a quick lunch or dinner!

These are AMAZING! I made them as the recipe directs except I mashed everything together a bit more for the hubby. I followed the instructions to wrap in aluminum foil so they would be a bit softer and they were great. The leftovers I wrapped individually in foil and put in the freezer. When I wanted a quick lunch I pulled a couple out and put directly into the oven till they were warm and I think they tasted better than the first night. Thanks so much!

These sounded so amazing that I wanted to make them tonight. So I got all the ingredients at the store but as we were cutting up the sweet potatoes noticed that they were white inside – did you by chance use yams instead of real sweet potatoes? I usually buy yams when a recipe calls for sweet potatoes but this time I thought I should stick to the recipe. Still haven’t tried them yet because their still cooking but just wondered!

I am not a big fan of onions nor beans, but chose to give this a try for variety in my change toward a healthy eating lifestyle. To my surprise, I loved it! Since it was just for me, I halved the recipe and made 6 small sized burritos and have a ton of bean mixture left over which i will freeze. I also added 1/2 cup of cooked quinoa for an extra nutritional kick. I also was unable to find fresh cilantro, so i used 1.5 tbsp dried cilantro. Loved that all the flavors and spices combined so nicely, and really prevented the beans from becoming the main flavor. This was delicious, i will be making it often!

My wife and I have loved this recipe since we found it about 3 years ago, and it’s also a favorite when we make it for our friends. A few suggestions I would make: 1) I would recommend microwaving the bowl of chopped veggies instead of putting them in the oven pre-putting them in the tortillas (we found that 20 mins in the oven doesn’t make the sweet potatoes soft enough) 2) If you have someone who doesn’t like spicy food, use 1 jalapeno instead of 2 as 2 makes the wraps quite spicy! 3) We used fajita-size tortillas instead of burrito size as they make the recipe go a lot further, and they are easier to hold/eat. Great recipe!

I made these last night, but didn’t have sweet potato on hand so I used zucchini & squash instead and added some baby bella mushrooms. Will make again and will use sweet potato in the fall. Veganized it with Daiya “cheese” and topped with fresh avocado & homemade salsa.

Delicious and easy! We grilled them in a tin on the BBQ and then heated the tortillas on the BBQ. Yum!

Super easy! My sweetie isn’t a big fan of sweet potatoes (but I love them!) so I used regular potatoes. They turned out great though!

These were so good. I love the sweet and spicy combination. I reheated the leftovers at work the next day and everyone commented on how good it smelled!
