Instructions


In a large skillet place olive oil, onions, and sweet potatoes.

Cover skillet and cook over medium heat for 5-10 minutes, stirring occasionally.  

You may need to add a bit of water to help them cook.

Add black beans (drain liquid into sink & rinse),  garlic, salt and pepper. Continue cooking over medium heat for 7-8 minutes, or until sweet potatoes are cooked through.

When done heat soft corn tortillas in a toaster or skillet on a low heat setting so they stay soft (soft is easier to digest>

For serving, fill each tortilla with the black beans & sweet potato mix.  

Top with any of the following: sauerkraut, avocado, shredded carrots, diced lettuce or fresh parsley or cilantro.  Enjoy!

This can also be eaten with/on a salad or with some steamed veggies.
