Cooking Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F.
  2. Toss sweet potato cubes, onions, and jalapeno with olive oil on a large rimmed baking sheet. Sprinkle 3/4 teaspoon salt, smoked paprika, chili powder, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, and cumin over potatoes and toss again to coat well. Bake for 30-35 minutes, tossing once, or until tender and golden.
  3. Meanwhile, make avocado crema. Add avocado, Greek yogurt, lemon juice, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Combine with an immersion blender until smooth.
  4. Remove potato mixture from the oven and mash half of the sweet potatoes.
  5. Add drained beans to the sheet pan of potatoes and mix together.
  6. Lay tortillas out and fill with sweet potato black bean filling. Top with some avocado crema, cheese, romaine, and salsa. Sprinkle crushed tortilla chips over the top, roll up, and slice in half. Serve with Cholula if desired.
