Ingredients


2 tbsp Olive Oil, Extra Virgin
4 cup Sweet potato (cut into 1/2-inch cubes)
1 onion(s) Sweet onion (finely diced)
2 clove(s) Garlic
1/4 tsp Salt and pepper (each)
1 tbsp Coconut oil (or canned black beans, drained and rinsed)
8 medium tortilla(s) Tortilla, corn
1 cup Refried beans, canned, traditional style (or canned black beans, drained and rinsed)
1 cup shredded Dairy-free mozzarella cheese shreds (or more to taste; optional)
1/2 cup Cilantro (coriander) (chopped; optional)

Instructions


  1. Place olive oil and sweet potatoes in a large skillet. Cover skillet and cook over medium heat for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  2. Add onions, garlic, salt, and pepper. Continue cooking over medium heat for 7-8 minutes, or until sweet potatoes are cooked through.
  3. In a separate skillet over medium heat, add coconut oil and 2-3 tortillas. Heat up tortillas for 1-2 minutes on each side. Remove tortillas and place them on a paper towel to remove excess oil. Repeat with remaining tortillas.
  4. For serving, fill each tortilla with the refried beans and sweet potato mixture, and top with non-dairy cheese and cilantro.
