Sweet Potato and Black Bean Enchiladas

Recipe from  http://www.acouplecooks.com/2012/10/sweet-potato-and-black-bean-green-enchiladas/

• 2 medium to large sweet potatoes (3 cups diced)
• 15 oz. can black beans
• 8 ounces canned diced green chilies (about 1 cup)
• 1 medium red onion
• ½ tablespoon cumin
• 1 tablespoon chili powder
• ½ teaspoon garlic powder
• ½ teaspoon kosher salt
• Fresh ground pepper
• ~2 cups salsa verde
• 6 to 8 oz. Colby jack cheese, shredded
• corn tortillas
• Sour cream
• Fresh cilantro, to garnish

What To Do

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F.
2. Cook the sweet potato: Peel and dice the sweet potato. Place in a pot and cover with water; add a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil and cook until tender, around 12 to 15 minutes.
3. Prepare the filling: Finely chop the red onion. Drain and rinse the black beans. (If using cilantro to garnish, you could chop it at this time as well.)
4. Assemble the filling: In a large bowl, combine the cooked sweet potato, black beans, red onion, green chilies, ½ tablespoon cumin, 1 tablespoon chili powder, ½ teaspoon garlic powder, ¼ to ½ teaspoon kosher salt, and fresh ground pepper. Mix to combine.
5. Assemble the enchiladas: Warm the tortillas for a minute in the microwave, or in a pan for a few seconds per side. In a large baking dish, spread ¾ to 1 cup of the salsa verde. Fill each tortilla with a heaping ½ cup scoop of the filling, add a handful of cheese, and roll it up. Place the enchilada seam-side down in the baking dish. Repeat for the remaining tortillas. When all enchiladas are in the dish, top with the remaining salsa verde (about ½ cup or so) and the remaining cheese.
6. Place in the oven and bake for 20 minutes, until the cheese is melted.
7. Serve, garnished with sour cream (mixed with a tiny bit of water to loosen it) and chopped cilantro.
