Instructions

  1. 01

    Preheat oven to 375°F. In a large saucepan, place a steamer basket in over one inch of water. Place the cubed sweet potato and chopped onion and red pepper into the basket. Bring the water to a boil. Reduce the heat to maintain a simmer and steam, covered, until tender, 15 to 20 minutes.

  2. 02

    Next, transfer the steamed vegetables to a large bowl. Mash the vegetables, gradually adding cilantro, spices and pepper until it's reached the consistency you like. Stir in the black beans.

  3. 03

    Spread 1/3 cup enchilada sauce into a greased 13x9-in. baking dish. Place 1/3 cup vegetable mixture in the center of each tortilla and sprinkle with 4 teaspoons of cheese. Roll up and place in the prepared dish with the seam side down. Once all tortillas have been placed in the dish, top with remaining enchilada sauce and sprinkle with remaining cheese.

  4. 04

    Bake, uncovered, until casserole is heated through and cheese is melted, 20 to 25 minutes. Serve with optional toppings as desired.
