Sweet Potato Burritos Recipes

SWEET POTATO AND BLACK BEAN BURRITOS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Add the sweet potatoes to a baking sheet in an even layer. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast until the potatoes are just tender but still have a bite, 15 to 20 minutes. Set aside.
• Add 2 tablespoons olive oil to a large saute pan and place over medium heat. Add the garlic and onion and saute until translucent, about 5 minutes. Then, add the jalapeno and stir to combine. Add the chili powder, tomato paste and oregano. Stir to combine and cook for an additional 2 minutes to release the flavors of the herbs. Then, add the spinach, beans and tomatoes. Fold gently to combine. Simmer until the spinach is wilted and the liquid has reduced by half, 7 to 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the queso fresco, lime juice and sweet potatoes. Taste and season as needed.
• Distribute the mixture evenly among the tortillas. Roll the tortillas, garnish with the cilantro and hot sauce and serve immediately. For freezer meal prep, wrap tightly in plastic wrap or parchment paper and store in an airtight container or bag. Freeze for up to 3 months.
• To reheat, place wrapped burrito in the microwave and reheat for 3 minutes, flipping once. Unwrap, garnish with the cilantro and hot sauce, if desired, and serve!

MAKE-AHEAD SWEET POTATO AND CHORIZO BREAKFAST BURRITOS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Place sweet potatoes and green onions on the baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Toss to combine and spread out evenly.
• Roast in the preheated oven until soft, about 25 minutes.
• Meanwhile, cook chorizo in a medium skillet over medium-high heat, breaking apart with a wooden spoon, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain any excess fat; transfer chorizo to a bowl and set aside to cool. Wipe out the skillet and return it to the stove.
• Whisk eggs in a bowl. Heat butter in the skillet over medium-high heat. Pour in eggs and scramble until just set, 3 to 5 minutes. Scrape eggs into a bowl and let cool.
• Line up tortillas in assembly-line fashion. Divide chorizo between the 8 tortillas. Top each with a portion of sweet potato-onion mixture, scrambled eggs, 1 tablespoon salsa, and queso fresco. Fold the bottom of each tortilla up over the filling, then fold in both sides and roll up burritos.
• Flip burritos so they are seam side-down. Wrap each individually with aluminum foil and place into a resealable plastic bag.

SWEET POTATO BURRITOS

Steps:

• If using dried black beans, soak overnight, and cook with a piece of dashi kombu seawood to make the beans softer. This step is optional, but dashi kombu, sold in asian foods stores, is wonderful for making beans softer and easier to digest.
• I find the easiest way to prepare large quantities of mashed sweet potatoes, is to throw all the unchopped, unpeeled sweet potatoes into a large stock pot, and boil until tender enough to easily poke a bread knife through. Then, drain all the water down the sink, and leave the sweet potatoes to cool slightly, and finish draining. After they have been boiled and drained, the skins slip off easily; much less work than peeling. Then mash them, and stir in salt and butter if you prefer.
• In a large pot, stir together the cooked or canned beans, cumin, mustard, soy sauce, and hot sauce. Taste, and add more seasonings if you like. Try to mash the beans slightly.
• Put 1/2 cup of bean mixture onto each tortilla. Top with cheese, if desired. Top with 1/2 cup mashed sweet potato. Wrap each tortilla.
• For a crispy outside, arrange the assembled burritos on a cookie sheet, and bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 12 minutes. Serve warm.
• For freezer food, do not pre-bake the burritos. Wrap individually with plastic wrap, and freeze.
