Ingredients  

  • 2 large baked sweet potatoes, cooked and mashed
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 15-ounce can black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded mexican blend cheese
  • 1 12-ounce can enchilada sauce
  • 6 large flour tortillas, or 12 corn tortillas

  • Pour half of the enchilada sauce into a 9x11 baking dish.
  • Place about 1/2 cup mixture into the middle of each tortilla and roll up.
  • Place the enchiladas, seam side down, into the baking dish. Pour the remaining enchilada sauce on top.
  • Cover with foil and bake for 15 minutes.
  • Remove foil and sprinkle with cheese and bake uncovered for an additional 15 minutes until cheese is melted and browned slightly
  • Note: The sweet potatoes can be baked up to 2 days ahead of time and the pulp removed and stored in the fridge.
