Black bean and sweet potato burritos

Eckth.

It is a sad that blogging is kinda over and done but the thing is

The thing IS

I need somewhere to keep my recipes so I don't keep being like "I'mma give you that recipe, ok, hold on, it's this one but you need to make like 5 different changes to it."

I will change them and store them here.

Sweet potato and black bean burritos are my huz's favourite vegetarian dish. (He is huz, I am wifesband.)

They are a combo of these two recipes with a couple alterations:

Sweet potatoes:

Follow the above linked recipe! To quote (removing black bean instructions):

Ingredients

• 1 extra-large sweet potato, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch cubes
• 1 small onion, cut into 8 wedges, then broken apart
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 tablespoon lime juice
• 1 tablespoon ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon chili powder
• 1/8-1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (or omit altogether for milder potatoes)

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 400ºF.
2. Toss the sweet potato cubes, onion wedges, olive oil, lime juice, cumin, chili powder, cayenne pepper, and salt in a bowl. Transfer to a rimmed baking sheet and bake for about 25 minutes, or until potatoes are tender, stirring halfway through cooking time.

I love making my own black beans from dried, they taste great, but it literally takes HOURS and canned beans ain't that espensive.

So I say skip the dried bean instructions on the linked page (if you're going to make your own, use a slow cooker.)

1. If you want onions in these, chop your small onion up and start frying it in oil. You want that nice Maillard reaction that gets them smelling so good.
 1. Drain and rinse black beans. Get rid of as much salt as possible, you'll get plenty more when you put salsa and cheese on your tacos!
2. Put beans in pot or pan that doesn't have a nonstick coating. You'll scratch it.
3. Dump in like 1/3 cup of water (doesn't have to be exact) and get them heating. You can throw in spices now: 2 tsp chili powder, 1/2 tsp cumin, 2 chopped cloves garlic (you could just do 1/2 tsp of garlic powder instead).
4. Once the beans are heated, take a potato masher to em. Mash em up real good.

Your refried beans are ready. Put them in whole grain wraps with all the usual taco ingredients! Salsa, sour cream, ranch, lettuce, tomato, bell peppers...whatever you like!
